It seems as if 2.5 uses native byte order by default, and 2.6 big

I don't know :). In the meantime, just use 'utf-16be' or 'uft-16le'
explicitly or make sure there's a BOM.
After further digging, it looks like it's a manifestation of a known
issue in 2.6's C API:

Anyway, I've added a workaround to my code as suggested.
Thanks,
