Ned Deily <n...@acm.org> added the comment:

I don't have a strong opinion about whether running setup.py in IDLE is 
supported.  But that's not the real issue here.  The problem is that the IDLE 
RPC proxy of the standard IO streams is incomplete, in particular, the 'errors' 
attribute of io.TextIOWrapper streams.  Looking back, it appears that the 
`errors` attribute was added to file objects and io streams in 2.6 but support 
for that was not added to IDLE.  I think that should be fixed.
