After some extensive rooting around, I've discovered through a crash 
course in python and destructive testing that there is a locale issue 
with this program:

%env LANG=en_EN.ISO8859-1 pysycache.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/local/bin/pysycache.py", line 442, in <module>
     if __name__ == '__main__': main(const.GWithFullScreen)
   File "/usr/local/bin/pysycache.py", line 264, in main
     locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,"")
   File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/locale.py", line 531, in setlocale
     return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting

Many variations have been tried here, but I still can't get it to work. 
Anything I'm missing here?

Disabling the locale setting in the program is not an option for many 
reasons.
