this bug is REAL and major IMO
any app that uses localization cannot be runned by a basque
python is not aware of eu_ES at all!
I don't know if this solves it (I'm not basque)

What do you need locale.getlocale() for? If it is to
determine the encoding, I recommend to use
locale.getpreferredencoding() instead.
