Python seems to be ok with C.UTF-8 here:
$ python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Dec 2 2008, 09:26:14)
[GCC 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)] on cygwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,"")
'C.UTF-8'
>>> locale.getlocale()
('C', 'UTF8')

If you're just starting python, how come you're getting messages from
'bzr'? Please describe the actual steps that produced those warnings.
Also, is bzr connecting to a remote machine? I don't get those
warnings if I just do 'bzr init' locally.

Right, so it doesn't seem to be the "C." bit that's causing the issue.
What happens if you set LC_ALL to en_US.UTF-8 instead?
