Hmm, I get:

Python/Dev-Python> ./python
Python 2.3a0 (#1, Dec 12 2002, 11:48:24)
[GCC 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> unicode('x', 'koi8-r')
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
LookupError: no codec search functions registered: can't find encoding
 >>>

Looking at the output of ./python -vv it appears as if the struct
cannot be loaded (which is imported by codecs.py).
