Stefan Krah added the comment:

On FreeBSD both Serhiy's original test case as well as the unit test work
if the locale is ISO8859-15:

>>> sys.getdefaultencoding()
'utf-8'
>>> sys.getfilesystemencoding()
'iso8859-15'
>>> locale.getpreferredencoding(True)
'ISO8859-15'
>>> locale.getpreferredencoding(False)
'ISO8859-15'

Naturally, if the locale is utf-8 the test works as well.
