As detailed in this SO question:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28101187/deal-with-unicode-usernames-in-python-mkdtemp
I still see the issue in 2.7.8.

which expects unicode everywhere)

Why are you using a unicode string as your temp directory prefix? Does
it raise something different if you don't?
