The UTF-8 value seems suspect to me, but is actually supported by the system, changing it to a nonsense value results in failure in the C function setlocale.

As for the patch: I'd add this workaround only to the OSX platform (that is, test for sys.platform == 'darwin' before checking for UTF-8 as a value).
