Python install has difficulties with accented characters in path

[Pierre Thibault]

I am building from the source and installing Python on my machine.

I added these tests failed:

test_doctest
test_httpservers
test_logging

But I moved the Python installation folder on another directory and
the failed tests vanished when I tried again. The difference? The new
directory does not have any accented characters in its name while the
other one was having one.

Should I flag this has a bug?

I am installing Python 2.6.5. I am running OpenSuse 11.2 AMD64.
