Ok, this might be more interesting:

$ cat | ./python -i
Python 3.2a0 (py3k:81010, May  8 2010, 23:25:47) 
[GCC 4.3.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import locale
>>> locale.getpreferredencoding()
'UTF-8'
>>> import sys
>>> sys.stdin 
<_io.TextIOWrapper name='<stdin>' encoding='ascii'>
>>> sys.getdefaultencoding()
'utf-8'

As you see, stdin uses ascii...
