No. An encoded unicode string is of type str, and PyUnicode_Encode()
returns an encoded string. Like so:
>>> u"\u1122".encode('utf-8')
'\xe1\x84\xa2'
>>> type(_)
<type 'str'>
> Then we assign v to copy, so v is still unicode.
Almost ;-)

The conceptual type of the object returned by PyUnicode_Encode().
