I've dropped __unicode__ from tkinter. The only remaining __unicode__
use is in the email package (besides the tests, where IMHO __unicode__
should stay as long as its handled by PyObject_Unicode()).
email.Header.Header defines a __unicode__ which is different from the
__str__ method. I guess Barry will know how to fix this.
