The actual problem is described here:

http://rubyforge.org/forum/forum.php?thread_id=6826&forum_id=1078

and from the cx-oracle-users mailing list comes this suggestion:

>>> import ctypes
>>> ctypes.CDLL('kernel32').SetEnvironmentVariableA('NLS_LANG', '.UTF8')

I've tried it, and it works.  I suggest patching the above into your
django/db/backends/oracle/base.py file, in place of the line:

os.environ['NLS_LANG'] = '.UTF8'

Cheers,
Ian
