[issue6135] subprocess seems to use local 8-bit encoding and gives no choice

[Amaury Forgeot d'Arc]

I don't understand. How is the subprocess stdout related to the main
program output?
Stream-specific encoding could be useful for subprocesses that expect
latin-1 from stdin but write utf-8 to stdout. I'm not sure we should
support this.
