Martin Panter added the comment:
I think this CGI thing is a separate bug, just exacerbated by the
stdin.encoding problem. :) The urllib.parse.parse_qs() function takes an
encoding parameter to figure out what to do with percent-encoded values: "%A9"
→ b"\xA9".decode(...). This is different lower-level encoding:
b"%A9".decode("ascii").
Maybe the best solution is just to remove the encoding argument, and let it
revert to UTF-8, as it did before r87998. Or maybe it really should use the
locale encoding. (Is that ASCII-compatible on Windows?) It really depends on
where the query string was generated (in a browser, pre-computed URL, etc).
