Python 2.2 (#1, Mar 26 2002, 15:46:04)   
[GCC 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE)] on linux2   
 
When calling the locale module's getdefaultlocale() 
method on SuSe 8.0 Linux you get:   
 
>>> locale.getdefaultlocale()   
Traceback (most recent call last):   
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?   
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/locale.py", line 337, in   
getdefaultlocale   
    return _parse_localename(localename)   
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/locale.py", line 271, in   
_parse_localename   
    raise ValueError, 'unknown locale: %s' %   
localename   
ValueError: unknown locale: de_DE@euro   
  
Evidently, Python2.2's locale module is unaware of 
the "somelang_SOMELANG@euro" nomenclature  
for euro-enabled locales on Linux.
