Makes sense... Do you think that creating a new object, setting it as
sys.stdout and overriding its write() method to check for a unicode string
to do original_stdout.write(unicode_str.encode(my_encoding)) would do it?
(the ctypes version is not really an option as it is not available on lots
of installs -- although I can try to use it if it's available, but it can't
be the only solution).

Thanks,

Fabio
