char *oldloc=setlocale(LC_CTYPE,NULL);
setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "C");
setlocale(LC_CTYPE, oldloc);
can cause strange problems.
The glibc documentation clearly states, that you must
make your own copy of the string.
From glibc docs:
setlocale()
RETURN VALUE
... This string may be allocated in static
storage. ...
It means, that subsequent call of setlocale can
overwrite this string. And since glibc-2.3 it does.
There is a fix.

Logged In: YES user_id=357491 'C: A Reference Manual' also suggests copying the string in fear of possible mucking with the string that is pointed to by the setlocale() call. Since this has a patch already I am changing this to a patch. And as for the patch, it does use strdup() which is not ANSI C. I know that there a couple of places that do use strdup(), but I am not sure if that is really proper. Requires asking python-dev. |

Logged In: YES user_id=357491 OK, I found that we have our own definition of strdup() that configure.in has used if it is not defined by the C library, so that issue is clear. |

If I'm not mistaken, this bug seems to be fre-introduced in "release30-maint/Modules/python.c". It could be fixed in just as it was before. |
