Where those the locale settings that you used when the build
failed?

I tried to reproduce the bug here with, disabling the parallel run (as
it masks the real error) with both:

	$ for i in LANG LC_ALL LC_ADDRESS LC_IDENTIFICATION LC_MEASUREMENT LC_MONETARY LC_NAME LC_NUMERIC LC_PAPER LC_TELEPHONE LC_TIME; do echo $i=en_US; done
	$ make cleandocs && make SPHINXOPTS=-j1 htmldocs

(this one caused lots of warnings on Debian, due to the
 settings at /etc/locale.gen)

and:

	$ for i in LANG LC_ALL LC_ADDRESS LC_IDENTIFICATION LC_MEASUREMENT LC_MONETARY LC_NAME LC_NUMERIC LC_PAPER LC_TELEPHONE LC_TIME; do echo $i=en_US.ISO-8859-1; done
	$ make cleandocs && make SPHINXOPTS=-j1 htmldocs

Without any success.

Could you please provide more details about the build VM and the git 
changeset that caused the issue?

It depends on what character set your en_US locale implements.

You can easily test if your python version can print UTF-8 in a specific
locale, and if necessary define an ISO-8859-1 locale for testing.
On some systems the situation is reversed - C locale is ASCII only, and
en_US is UTF-8, and it is possible that some systems don't ship an 8bit
locale at all.

Thanks
