The strxfrm function in the locale module can potentially raise a MemoryError. The failing malloc is in Modules/_localemodule.c, line 291. This is because the variable n0 of type Py_ssize_t is passed to PyArg_ParseTuple, which expects an int when PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN is not defined. Patch attached, which also fixes an unrelated memory leak.
