[issue3362] locale.getpreferredencoding() gives bus error on Mac OS X 10.4.11 PPC

[Martin v. Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

It would be good to find out what the code inside
PyLocale_getdefaultlocale precisely is doing. I.e. what is the value of
name at that point, and is that perhaps an illegal parameter for
CFStringGetCStringPtr somehow? If the debugger can't help (not even
after compiling Python with --with-pydebug), augment the source code
with a printf, and rebuild Python.
