New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com>:

If logdir is not None the exception handler in cgitb tries to save the 
description of an error in that directory using the locale encoding. It will 
fail if the description contains non-encodable characters.

We should either use corresponding error handlers (e.g. 'xmlcharrreplace' for 
html and 'backslashreplace' for text) for handling encoding errors or use the 
UTF-8 encoding.
