New issue 2377: #2377
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/2377/2377

Daniil Yarancev:

Using last version of PyPy on Windows (5.3.1), issuing a "pypy -m ensurepip" command gives strange error:

```
#!python


File "C:\pypy2-v5.3.1-win32\lib-python\2.7\mimetypes.py", line 267, in read_windows_registry
      mimetype = mimetype.encode(default_encoding)
  UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)
```


I use Russian version of Windows 10 (10.0.10586 build) 

But I found a hack for resolving this error: changed 
```
#!python

mimetype = mimetype.encode(default_encoding)

to

mimetype = mimetype
```
