[issue11898] Sending binary data with a POST request in httplib can cause Unicode exceptions

There is another problem that makes the problem even more critical. OS X 10.7 does include Python 2.7.1 as the *default* interpreter.

So we'll need both a fix for the future and an workaround.

BTW, the hack with sys.setdefaultencoding cannot be used if you really send binary data.
