This brings me to another question. When I define DEFAULT_CHARSET in the mm_cfg.py, and mm_cfg.py is imported in other modules, the encoding is actually known to Mailman. Would it be possible to use this value instead of patching Python?

DEFAULT_CHARSET was used only by the pipermail archiver and hasn't been actually used by anything in Mailman since before Mailman 2.1.0.

With regard to changing the encoding for the command line tools that currently use Python's getdefaultencoding() is concerned, they should probably be using something like locale.getdefaultlocale()[1] instead. This is something we should look into for Mailman 2.2/3.0
