[issue1170] shlex have problems with parsing unicode

[Alexander Belopolsky]

Fernando,

Is this 2.7 only problem?  In 3.2


>>> list(shlex.shlex('ab'))
['ab']

and bytes are not supported.

>> list(shlex.shlex(b'ab'))
Traceback (most recent call last):
..
AttributeError: 'bytes' object has no attribute 'read'

It is debatable whether either is a bug.
