[Python-3000] PEP 3137 plan of attack

[Thomas Lee]

I was having weird problems with the codec registry too - specifically 
the assertion checking unidata_version == "3.2.0" mysteriously failing 
after forcing string/unicode equality checks to return false. Thought 
maybe unidata_version somehow got a str8 version or something weird like 
that ... haven't looked into it at all though.

I'll be taking another look tomorrow night. I'll try to give your patch 
a test run then and see if I can help at all if somebody else hasn't 
already sorted it out.

Cheers,
Tom
