Comment (by aaugustin):
I used a private API in the bug report, however, the same problem happens
in the public APIs:
{{{
>>> from django.core.signing import Signer
>>> signer = Signer()
>>> value = signer.sign('My string')
>>> value
u'My string:ChWrz0sf2O07KCdM9iP-xb50tuY'
}}}
Notice that a unicode value is returned here, where the docs
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/signing/#using-the-low-
level-api show a bytestring].
