In my project, using Python 2.7.8, if I try the following command:
{{{
./manage.py makemessages -l en
}}}
I get this error:
{{{#!pytb

It works in Django 1.6.5, but breaks since 1.7rc1. I think it is related
to the commit dbb48d2bb99a5f660cf2d85f137b8d87fc12d99f with the
introduction of {{{unicode_literals}}} in this command because of this:
{{{#!pytb

So I don’t really know if it’s a Django or Python bug, but it seems like a
regression.
