I can still replicate with python2.6 /usr/bin/apport-retrace, but
python2.7 apparently has this fixed. As 2.7 is the default in natty,
I'm closing this now. Thanks!

Possibly, I'm not an expert about python, and the guys in #python said
that 2.6 write() doesn't support unicode and you have to convert it. I'm
not sure if that's just a workaround or the intended behaviour. 2.7
works fine with unicode btw. and output in python 3 seems to work
differently.

It could have a better handle of the no-options and invalid options.
Instead of a error can be something like:
apport-retrace
No options given. Please, use apport-retrace --help to get a complete list of
options.
or
Invalid option. Run apport-retrace --help to get a complete list of
options.

Ok, after some debugging it turnes out that python2.6
sys.stderr.write() can't handle unicode characters that aren't converted

sys.stderr.write(str(u'\xfc'))
