The tests in TestEnUSCollation I added don't work for all encodings (e.g. Asian ones, or ASCII). Now checked for encodings which are known to work. Found and fixed a bug (result not returned) in getpreferredencoding in Lib/locale.py. This test is skipped on Mac, since r30377. I've tested it on 10.3 (PPC), and it passed, so I enabled it again. I did, however, find that FreeBSD and Mac OS X have known bugs in wcscoll and wcsxfrm: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=wcsxfrm (cf. patch)
