I would expect this to be pretty easy to fix. I haven't looked at how Jython implements encoding look-ups, but it should at least be possible to use java.nio.charset.Charsets directly if look-up fails. If this has a change to make it to 2.5.3 (or later 2.7) I can take a look at it myself. One problem of Jython not supporting all the encodings supported by JVM is that it prevents using file.encoding property for implementing the missing sys.getfilesystemencoding() (issue #1839).
