probably my testcase for printing unicode with python (which I took from
a stackoverflow question) was not correct

This would be better:
$ echo 'print "m\xc3\xbcde"' tmp2.py
$ python tmp2.py
müde

$ kdesudo python tmp2.py
müde
# garbage but no error

so I guess kdesudo changes something in the environment that makes do-
release-upgrade produce bad output
