The patch eases the bootstrap constraints by creating a
bootstrap-friendly subset of locale.py. It is indeed much less pressing
now that the initial bug has been fixed.

It also depends whether it is important to have a lightweight
executable. If it isn't, I guess we could compile all extension modules
statically.
