I know that one must be absolutely "modern" (using Python 2.7.x, too bad for
the others) but the master version of QGIS for Mac Os X is based on the
standard Apple Python, and , unfortunately for me and others, in Snow
Leopard (10.6) it is the version 2.6.
Mmm, 2.6 I would not call that modern. Better try to do a pull request
to Apple (mmm, can not find there repo on Github) for 2.7 or 3.0 ;-)
But seriously, if (as a dev) you run a system with a 2.7 python
yourself, it is just hard to keep up with all the little tricks you have
to do just to be backwords compatible. You just do not see when it goes
wrong in 2.6...
And agreed, your fix seems trivial, and I think that is the power of
using OpenSource and Github. You can have a look into the source, and
even better (in your case) fix it \o/
Please clone the QGIS repo in github:
https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/blob/master/python/console/console_output.py#L135
push your fix and then ask for a so called 'pull request'. If your fix
does not have any by-effects for other (really modern) python versions,
I think the devs are really happy to add it.
I'm happy to help you with the Github stuff, or if it is really too much
fuss for you now, I can do this for you.

Richard Duivenvoorde
ps the hill can be a little steep to add these little fixes for the
first time, but QGIS get's only better by this.
