Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

Since rot_13 is a transcoder, not an encoder, the error message is correct, as 
is the fix for the function. However, since neither the module encodings.rot_13 
nor the rot13 function in the module are documented, (not even in 2.7), I 
wonder if the function and the if __name__; clause are ancient holdovers that 
should be removed. In other words, I am not sure if Berker's test is currently 
a supported usage. I remember that there was some discussion on pydev about how 
much to add back but not the details.
