FWIW, I did test with "-X utf8" option and it wasn't any better.  Just tested "python.exe -X utf8=1 -m test -W test_cmd_line_script" with 3.10.0 rc2 again, and got 6 errors and 2 failures this way (1 more error than without "-X utf8=1").  There is also this new error message:

0:00:01 [1/1] test_cmd_line_script
Warning -- Uncaught thread exception: UnicodeDecodeError
