Sorry for being unclear. My question was about the following lines
from http://docs.python.org/library/locale.html#locale.getpreferredencoding:

"""On some systems, it is necessary to invoke setlocale() to obtain
the user preferences, so this function is not thread-safe. If invoking
setlocale is not necessary or desired, do_setlocale should be set to
False."""

So my question was about what happens on such systems where invoking
setlocale is necessary to obtain the user preferences?
