If this method does not work as expected then this is likely a bug
or a problem of the underlying implementation in the C lib. locale.strcoll
is just a *thin* layer on top of the libc  of your operating system. Means:
Python just passed the data to the libc strcoll() method and returns the 
result.
And again my hint: if you want to deal in a reasonable way with different 
charsets:
use unicode strings.
