I see this is an old ticket (#16017) but the same failure is showing in
1.4c2 and the code does not reflect the solution suggested in the ticket

You just installed Django's auth system, which means you don't have any
superusers defined.
Would you like to create one now? (yes/no): yes

TypeError: decode() argument 1 must be string, not None
locale.getdefaultlocale() should return something other than (None,None) if
environment variables are set but istm that this should fail gracefully (or
not fail at all; the ticket suggests a solution using a different call
which does return a non-None on my system).
