R. David Murray added the comment:

Interesting, I didn't even know (remember?) about the -U flag, and it isn't 
documented.  I guess we don't test it, and I suppose that it is effectively 
deprecated.  (So others who don't remember don't need to repeat my research: it 
turns all string literals into unicode literals, which function was added as an 
experimental tool by Marc Andre in 2000.  I believe it was later superseded by 
'from __future__ import unicode_literals', but I didn't research that part.)

This works fine on linux, and the traceback looks like it involves some 
windows-specific code. 

I'm not sure if this is worth bothering to fix.
