OSATerminology.GetSysTerminology() is broken as it calls 
OSAGetAppTerminology instead of OSAGetSysTerminology. 

Attached diff fixes this bug, and additionally patches both 
functions to ignore any modeFlags arguments passed by user as 
this value should always be kOSAModeNull. Some minor 
additions and improvements to commenting and docstrings too. 
Tested and working on Python 2.3.3, OS 10.2.8.

See also bug #884085, patch #979784. (Note that this patch 
supercedes #979784.)

Fixed in the trunk in revision r70178. 

hhas: it is save to backport this to python 2.6?

No idea, be honest. The original patch was created for 2.3, and I've no 
free time to look into it myself now.

BTW, note that nobody uses this module any more; it's deprecated in 2.6, 
absent in 3.0, and OSAGetAppTerminology() is deprecated in OS X 10.5 as 
well. I've already recommended that this and other bugs related to now-
deprecated MacPython-only APIs be closed as "won't fix".
