[issue1170] shlex have problems with parsing unicode

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org> added the comment:

It’s not about allocating resources, it’s about following process.  The first part is that we don’t add new features to stable releases, the second item is that this is not considered a bug fix: The code pre-dates Unicode, was not updated to support it, and the docs say “The shlex module currently does not support Unicode input”.
