After investigating this I now know why. Capturing the generated

encoding on Windows, despite the fact that the first line of the
script says it is encoded in utf-8.
Basically it comes to the difference between bytes and string. In
Python 2 they are the same.
In Python 3 the line that states that the content is utf8 is a no-op
since all code files need to be in that encoding.

That does make me wonder whether there are other versions of this
problem. Are there other cases where we generate files in this way?
