[issue9692] UnicodeDecodeError in ElementTree.tostring()

[Amaury Forgeot d'Arc]

Testing with python 2.5: oDoc.set("ATTR", "ÄÖÜ") uses the encoding used by the source code (with "# -*- coding:";) If I use utf-8 instead, the output is:
   <ROOT ATTR="&#195;&#132;&#195;&#150;&#195;&#156;" />
which contains the numbers of the 3 pairs of surrogates.
