Of course, the real solution to this issue is to replace sys.stdout on
windows with an object that can handle Unicode directly with the
WriteConsoleW function - the problem there is that it will break code
that expects to be able to use sys.stdout.buffer for binary I/O. I also
wasn't able to get the analogous stdin replacement class to work with
input() in my attempts.

I started to use this on my windows installation


#c:\python33\lib\site-packages\sitecustomize.py
import sys, codecs
sys.stdout = codecs.getwriter("utf-8")(sys.stdout.detach())
sys.stderr = codecs.getwriter("utf-8")(sys.stderr.detach())

which makes them writable with any unicode; after many years I am quite used to garbage appearing in the windows console.

Unfortunately the above doesn't go into virtual environments, but I assume a hacked site.py could do that.
