I think the patch I attach here is a better fix than the
patch in http://bugs.python.org/msg202469 because
it makes the normalize() function behave more logical overall,
with this patch, my test program prints:
mfabian@ari:/local/mfabian/src/cpython (2.7-mike %)
$ ./python ~/tmp/mike-test.py
ja_JP.UTF-8 -> ja_JP.UTF-8
de_DE.SJIS -> de_DE.SJIS
de_DE.foobar -> de_DE.foobar
sr_RS.UTF-8@latin -> sr_RS.UTF-8@latin
sr_rs@latin -> sr_RS.UTF-8@latin
sr@latin -> sr_RS.UTF-8@latin

The patch also contains a small fix for the "ks" and "sd"
locales in the locale_alias dictionary, they had the ".UTF-8"
in the wrong place:
- 'ks_in@devanagari': 'ks_IN@devanagari.UTF-8',
+ 'ks_in@devanagari': 'ks_IN.UTF-8@devanagari',
- 'sd': 'sd_IN@devanagari.UTF-8',
+ 'sd': 'sd_IN.UTF-8@devanagari',
(This error is inherited from the locale.alias file from X.org
where the locale_alias dictionary is generated from)
