r70357 seems to have caused the sparc solaris py3k buildbot to start failing on 
test_locale:


======================================================================
FAIL: test_integer_grouping_and_padding (test.test_locale.TestNumberFormatting)

    func(format, value, **format_opts), out)
AssertionError: '     4200' != '      4200'


Any idea what's going on here?
