In the attached patch, I've removed encoding cookies in all files listed in the message above except

>> Lib/test/bad_coding.py:# -*- coding: uft-8 -*-
>> Lib/test/badsyntax_3131.py:# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
>> Lib/shlex.py:# -*- coding: iso-8859-1 -*-

The bad_coding contains bad encoding cookie which is being tested, in badsyntax_3131, the cookie could be removed, but I think it clarifies the meaning of the file.  It can probably be replaced with a comment explaining what is being tested.

The shlex.py was reverted in r82560, so I am not touching it, but I suspect that the logic used to build wordchars is not correct on systems supporting unicode.

I am adding Peter Åstrand to "nosy" because his name was miscoded in Lib/getopt.py and I fixed it by copying from Misc/ACKS.
