This thread will discuss the unicode problems that likely were caused
by the mass update at rev 2690.

Rev 2732 now prints the default encoding calculated by setEncoding to
the log on signon.

I was shocked to discover that it is cp1252 on my Windows machine, not
utf-8.  This happens because locale.getpreferredencoding() takes
precedence over sys.getdefaultencoding().  Note that

It's not clear that it really makes a difference.  What *does* make a
difference is that the proper encoding is used when reading and
writing files.  In such cases, it would be quite wrong to call
g.toUnicode or g.toEncodedString without an explicit encoding
argument.

At present, I'm checking the diff between revs 2690 and 2689 looking
for clues...
