When calling HttpResponse.set_cookie as below, you get an error from
`translate` saying it doesn't expect two variables. The backtrace is
(relevant parts only):
{{{
TypeError at /js/utils/cookie/set/
translate() takes exactly one argument (2 given)
...
Traceback:

Exception Type: TypeError at /js/utils/cookie/set/

}}}
This is happening under Django 1.4.2 and Python 2.7.3 (both latest from
the Ubuntu 12.10 repository). The code used to trigger this bug is:
{{{
from django.http import HttpResponse
def view(request):
response = HttpResponse()
response.set_cookie(u'unicode_string', 'does not work!')
return response
}}}
