Summary: test_logging fails if setlocale() not supported

Initial Comment:
Test_logging fails if setlocale doesn't work (such as on MacOSX). This strikes me as a bit over the top.

BTW: on MacOSX calling setlocale() results in locale.Error being raised. There is a try/except for ValueError, but I'm not sure whether I can simply add locale.Error to the expected exceptions.

I think you can just add the expected exceptions.  So the
clause would be: except (ValueError, locale.Error):

I'm not sure why setting locale was necessary.  If the test
runs after the change, feel free to check in the fix.  It
seems more robust that way.
