This test is always skipped, but it is not a reason not to adapt it to py3k.

I had to reduce most of the big figures to actually run the test.

(it is about parsing the python command line arguments, not about subprocess)

to understand why the test fails on some platforms.

terminal does not use UTF8.

Now the code propagates the unicode string as far as possible, and avoids
the conversion to char* which implicitely uses utf-8.
