I want to forbid my application to access the filesystem. The easiest
way seems to be chrooting and droping privileges. However, surprisingly,
python loads the codecs from the filesystem on-demand, which makes my
program crash:
import os
os.getuid()
Another option is to copy the data to the a location under the new chroot and
register a new lookup functions
(http://docs.python.org/library/codecs.html#codecs.register). This way you can
save some memory.

Supposing such a list existed:
What do you mean by "unknown file"? That the encoding is unknown?
Possibility 1:
You are going to try to decode the fil
