If you're automatically wrapping a C source file and don't know the source
encoding, you could naively decode it as Latin-1. You're still faced with the
problem of characters that Python doesn't allow in identifiers. For example,
gcc allows "$" in C identifiers (e.g. a field named "egg$"), but Python doesn't
allow this character. At least you can use getattr() to access such names. For
example:
>>> s = bytes(range(256)).decode('latin-1')
>>> T = type('T', (), {s: 0})
>>> t = T()
>>> getattr(t, s)
0
