I did some more testing and verified that this is a problem caused by the fact that trans_5C is a string and not unicode. It also happens when trans_36 is sent to key.translate().

>>> import hmac
>>> hmac.new(u'key', u'msg')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

return HMAC(key, msg, digestmod)
File "hmac.py", line 72, in __init__
self.inner.update(key.translate(trans_36))
TypeError: character mapping must return integer, None or unicode
