Another way is to open the file in binary, then exec() checks itself if 
an encoding is defined in the file. This is what is used in spyder:

exec(open(file, 'rb').read())

Here is the discussion for reference: 
https://bitbucket.org/spyder-ide/spyderlib/pull-request/3/execution-on-current-spyder-interpreter/diff

This behavior is not indicated in the documentation but is somehow 
confirmed on stackoverflow:
