First: I'm no python guru
but this seems to be one of python's oddities when dealing with ttys or
terminals.
Try something like:
python -c 'print u"\xe4"'
python -c 'print u"\xe4".encode("utf-8")'
python -c 'print u"\xe4".encode("utf-8")' | od -x
python -c 'print u"\u2aac".encode("utf-8")' | od -x
Not sure if http://docs.python.org/howto/unicode.html is still up-to-date.
May be setting proper environment variable for LANG and LC_* can help.
