Comment:

 There was no request for you outstanding, so this should have been
 unassigned from you.  However, just recently I started a discussion on the
 python-dev list, and referenced this ticket, and they said that the
 symptoms that we observed are not the symptoms they would expect from
 having an inconsistency of internal unicode format between Python
 interpreter and Python module.  If that were the problem, we should have
 seen something like "undefined symbol:
 PyUnicodeUCS4_FromUnicode", not the utf-8 decode error that we saw.

 Here is the comment on python-dev to that effect:

 So, now there ''is'' something you could do to help: see if you still have
 that pyOpenSSL library that you mentioned, the removal of which fixed this
 problem for you, so we can try to see what was wrong with it.
