New submission from Christian Klein:
The Python 2.7 re module seems not to agree what to consider a word character:
import re
s = u'f\xfc'
print re.sub('\W', '*', s, re.UNICODE)
print re.findall('\w', s, re.UNICODE)
The application of re.sub removes the character u'ΓΌ' which implies it's
considered a non word character (\W).
But then re.findall shows it as a word character (\w).
Python 3.4 and Python 3.5 are correct respectively coherent.
(But that's unfortunately not an option for Google App Engine)
