For the 3.2 final, I would like to mark this issue has a blocker:

    http://bugs.python.org/issue8611

It's not possible to install Python in a non-ASCII directory (eg. user 
directory, user with a non-ASCII character in its name) on Windows.

I think that nobody noticed this bug before because there are few early 
adopters (people testing Python3).

I think that #8988 is a duplicate.

Fix #8611 is not trivial. I opened ~20 issues to prepare the work. It's not 
finished yet.
