str.split() doesn't seem to respect non-breaking space:

  Python 3.4.2 (default, Oct  8 2014, 10:45:20) 
  [GCC 4.9.1] on linux
  Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> print(repr("hello\N{NO-BREAK SPACE}world".split()))
  ['hello', 'world']

What's the purpose of a non-breaking space if it's treated like a
space for breaking/splitting purposes? :-)

Is this a bug?
