FWIW, it seems to be a general and widespread recommendation to always pass
universal_newlines=True to Popen and friends when you only want to deal with
unicode from subprocesses:
If encoding or errors are specified, or universal_newlines is true, the
file objects stdin, stdout and stderr will be opened in text mode using
the encoding and errors specified in the call or the defaults for
io.TextIOWrapper.
