Update of /cvsroot/python/python/dist/src/Modules In directory sc8-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv20873/Modules

Modified Files: localemodule.c Log Message: Patch #632973: Implement getdefaultlocale for OS X.

I think this patch broke test_strptime:

test test_strptime failed -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/mwh/Source/python/dist/src/Lib/test/test_strptime.py", line 156, in test_returning_RE self.failUnless(_strptime.strptime("1999", strp_output), "Use or re object failed") File "/Users/mwh/Source/python/dist/src/Lib/_strptime.py", line 399, in strptime if format.pattern.find(locale_time.lang) == -1: TypeError: expected a character buffer object

locale_time.lang is None.

Dunno who's at fault here -- strptime? the test? the locale stuff? -- just being the bearer of bad news. I also have a bunch of mods in my tree, but I'm not expecting this to be them.

Cheers, M.
