In Python 3, what happens if user code attempts to output to a text
stream a byte string? Ie., what would be displayed?

Also, if wsgi.errors is a text stream, presume that if a WSGI adapter
has to internally map this to a C char* like API for logging that it
would need to apply standard Python encoding to yield usable char*
string for output.
