Ok, after some debugging it turnes out that python2.6
sys.stderr.write() can't handle unicode characters that aren't converted
to bytes first:
sys.stderr.write(str(u'\xfc'))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfc' in position 0:
ordinal not in range(128)
sys.stderr.write(u'\xfc'.encode('utf-8'))
