[issue30647] CODESET error on AMD64 FreeBSD 10.x Shared 3.x caused by the PEP 538

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan added the comment:

I was able to fix the test_readline failure by restoring the locale based on the environment settings with `setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "")` rather than the return value from a preceding call to `setlocale(LC_CTYPE, NULL)`.

That means we can leave the runtime coercion checks enabled on *BSD systems, and if/when any given BSD variant adds working Linux-style C.UTF-8 or OS-X-style UTF-8 locales, we'll automatically start using them.
