Comment (by mtredinnick):

 Since you talk about force_unicode, I'm guessing you mean you are running
 5620, not 5260.
 
 This patch doesn't look like the right fix; it's exploiting a slightly
 ugly feature of smart_str that should only be required for broken code,
 from memory.
 
 Can you please provide an example of how to repeat the problem so that we
 can try to work out the right fix. At a minimum, what is str(s) returning
 when the error occurs (it should be UTF-8, so I'm confused as to why any
 encoding error would be occurring). And is the 'encoding' parameter
 anything other than 'utf-8' when the problem occurs?
 
 A traceback would be useful, too.
