OK, *that* sounds like an excellent reason to keep the Unicode disabled builds functional, and make sure they stay that way with a buildbot: to help make sure we're not accidentally running afoul of the implicit interoperability between str and unicode when backporting fixes from Python 3.
Helping to ensure correct handling of str values makes this capability something of benefit to *all* Python 2 users, not just those that turn off the Unicode support. It also makes it a potentially useful testing tool when assessing str/unicode handling in general.
Do you want to make some patch reviews?
