In my version (2.2a1), there was was something like this: try: from x import * except ImportError: def setlocale(): pass def setlocale(): pass So it seems to me the setlocale in the except clause (which is the one that should have been deleted), will always be replaced with one outside try/except. Am I missing something or has the code changed?

You're right. I think that module is laid out a bit confusing. I think it's up to Martin von Loewis to make the cut -- it's basically his module. :-)
