Xavier de Gaye added the comment:

In makesockaddr(), the current implementation does not do any decoding of 
AF_UNIX addresses in the abstract namespace in the struct sockaddr_un to bytes 
direction, i.e. system to python direction, but does encode a string or bytes 
object to struct sockaddr_un in the reverse direction, in getsockaddrarg(). 
This is not correct.

So the patch does more than fixing the type of the addresses as it also fixes 
this in a non backward compatible way. Maybe this should be indicated in 
Misc/NEWS.
