Another note:
if one creates a dummy Stream object (having a softspace attribute and a
write method that writes using os.write, as in
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/878972/windows-cmd-encoding-change-causes-python-crash/1432462#1432462
) to replace sys.stdout and sys.stderr, then writes occur correctly,
without issues. Pre-requisites:
chcp 65001, Lucida Console font and cp65001 as an alias for UTF-8 in
encodings/aliases.py
This is Python 2.5.4 on Windows.
