Such skip is not a good idea. Many OS uses the Latin1 encoding when the C locale is used (even if ASCII encoding is announced :-/): Solaris, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, etc.

pythonrun_filename_decoding_test_2.patch: 'surrogateescape' error handler is not used on Windows (and must not be used), whereas the initial issue was reported on Windows.
