From Georg Brandl on the [http://bugs.python.org/issue22758#msg230205
Python bug tracker]:
"Django uses `__init__(str())` roundtripping, which is not explicitly
supported by the [`SimpleCookie`] library, and worked by accident with
previous versions. That it works again with 3.3+ is another accident, and
a bug."
If Python fixes this "bug", we'll need to backport a fix to all supported
versions of Django. I'm working a patch using the solution suggested by
Georg on the ticket.
