Jason Day <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

Running help() or mktemp() causes _getfullpathname to be called with the whole 
system path (791 characters). If you pass that to _getfullpathname as str it 
throws the aforementioned TypeError. If it's passed as unicode, it returns an 
empty string.
The offending _getfullpathname call occurs on the first call to one of these 
methods. Future calls to either do not call it (unless, of course, the first 
failed).
