[issue2562] Cannot use non-ascii letters in disutils if setuptools is used.

[Martin v. Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

As a follow-up: for compatibility, it might be possible to support
either Unicode or arbitrary plain strings in write_pkg_file. In 3k, such
support can then be dropped.

As that constitutes a new feature, it shouldn't be applied to 2.5.
