R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

Éric, if you are saying, "the user asked for it, it *should* fail", then that 
is indeed one of the arguments put forward in issue 9992 where this was 
discussed.  But I think the emerging consensus is that it is better to just 
avoid the problem by always using the locale on Unix, and solve the problem 
that PYTHONFSENCODING was supposed to solve in a different way (by always using 
utf-8 on OSX and unicode on Windows).
