Content 
The doc for setlocale(category [,locale]) says "locale may be a string, or an iterable of two strings (language code and encoding)".  The purpose of _build_locale is handle an iterable of two strings.  This request looks like an enhancement request, which is not allowed for 2.7.  I suspect that the locale locale module and doc predate the addition of unicode.  I think this should be closed.
