Sual,
Python with wctype-functions will cause the following failures of LSB
test.
Python Runtime Tests 
|-- test_codecs.py
|-- test_re.py
|-- test_unicode.py
Reference:
1) http://bugs.python.org/issue1609
2) README of python
	The following systems are still supported in Python 2.5, but
	support will be dropped in 2.6:
	- Systems using --with-wctype-functions
	- Win9x, WinME
