Requiring users to set LANG is a problem, bzr should simply work out of 
the box for the common case. But if it really works, maybe its a better 
solution.

I tested LANG on 10.3 (same result in x11 terminal and Terminal.app):

	$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 python -c 'import locale; print 
locale.getpreferredencoding()'
	mac-roman

So it does not help to get the input encoding.

	$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 python -c 'import sys; print sys.stdout.encoding'
	UTF-8

Works for the output encoding, so the special checks for darwin can be 
eliminated.
