Hi, was wondering if the same than https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/issues/257 could be applied to pythonz ?

Nearly every Python 2.7 binary in main-stream Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, CentOS, Slackware, Gentoo) use ucs4. To keep compatibility with system shipped python packages, I agree with your thought.
