About the failures in test_c_locale_surrogateescape, it seems that on Android the locale is not set correctly on startup when LC_ALL is set to C:

root at generic_x86:/data/local/tmp # LC_ALL=C python
Python 3.6.0a0 (default:eee959fee5f5+, May 14 2016, 10:19:09) 
[GCC 4.9 20150123 (prerelease)] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import locale; locale.getlocale()
('en_US', 'UTF-8')
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '')
'C'
>>> locale.getlocale()
(None, None)
>>>
