On OSX, _locale.setlocale raise locale.Error with arg 'UTF8' but ok with 'UTF-8'. and setlocale tries to normalize localename with locale.normalize(). and locale.normalize() always change encoding to 'UTF8' (locale.py:646). So changes in locale.normalize could fix this issue at least on OSX. patch and unittest against p3k is attached. I did not search why normalize() changes 'utf_8' to 'UTF8' until now. but I would post if I get answer in subversion log.
