[Discuss-gnuradio] Build errors on systems with non-English configuration

[mleech]

I've gotten not-very-good reports of build-gnuradio failing on systems that are set for languages other than English, and which contain pathname components with non-English characters.

This appears to affect the underlying Gnu Radio build when it uses Python internally, and also to Gnu Radio applications that are run subsequently.

I'd like to get good error reports from people who have experienced this, so we can determine if there's an easy fix that continues to allow the user to use a non-English system configuration.

So, if you've experienced this situation on a non-English system, with pathnames (like you home directory) that contain non-ASCII-English characters, I'd like to know about it, and get good error logs.
