The following tests break:
        test_str.test_conversion
                We already disable a single test case (Foo9 called with 
unicode) but now we would disable 3 (Foo6, Foo7, and Foo9 called with str).  
Supporting it on old-style classes also causes us to disable Foo0.
        test_unicode.test_conversion:
                We currently disable most of the test cases here - all except 
for Foo8 (Unicode)/Foo9 (str).  After the change those two are failing and 
everything else is now passing.
        Test_traceback.test_format_exception_only_bad__str__:
                BaseException defines __unicode__ and so it gets called instead 
of __str__ - it looks like I can fix this one.
        Test_doctest:
                There's one failure here, it's the same as the test_traceback 
issue, and again it looks like it's fixable.

So the net result is that tests which specifically check for differences with 
__unicode__ / __str__ when called with Unicode/str change behavior.  Everything 
else works the same.  

My initial test job didn't include support for __unicode__ on old-style classes 
or have the fix for exceptions.  I'm sending it through again to make sure 
those two changes didn't break anything else.  But I'm inclined to say that 
this change is for the better.  Thoughts?
