This option is causing issues with python unicode support. Several unicode related regression tests are currently failing (test_re and test_codecs for example) and removing this option fixes these.

Discussion related to python issue 9210 (https://bugs.python.org/issue9210) indicates its original goal was to save memory and that the option should have been deprecated ages ago.
