[New-bugs-announce] [issue1070] unicode identifiers in error messages

[Georg Brandl]

New submission from Georg Brandl:

When showing a name in a NameError, the encoding is messed up.
(File y.py, encoded in UTF-8, contains only only the line shown in the
traceback; the terminal encoding is set to UTF-8.)

$ python3k y.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "y.py", line 1, in <module>
    print(ä)
NameError: name 'ￃﾤ' is not defined
