Some tests, namely test_email, test_locale and test_mailbox, normally pass, but fail if both of the following conditions are met:
- the local is fr_FR (or probably any other non-C locale)
- test_decimal is run before them
Steps to repoduce:
% LC_ALL=fr_FR ./python -m test test_email test_locale test_mailbox test_decimal
[1/4] test_email
[2/4] test_locale
[3/4] test_mailbox
[4/4] test_decimal
All 4 tests OK.
% LC_ALL=C ./python -m test test_decimal test_email test_locale test_mailbox 
[1/4] test_decimal
[2/4] test_email
[3/4] test_locale
[4/4] test_mailbox
All 4 tests OK.
% LC_ALL=fr_FR ./python -m test test_decimal test_email test_locale test_mailbox 
[1/4] test_decimal
[2/4] test_email

Issue #16080: Use run_with_locale() decorator to reset the locale properly.
http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/3f5fedb17a78 

Thanks for the report. -- The locale wasn't properly reset in
test_wide_char_separator_decimal_point(). Should be fixed now.

Here we go. The new code fails if ps_AF isn't available.
