We definitely should not run any commands that require interaction in
the default test suite.
I'm not sure why on Linux we don't have this problem, but if you can
give the exact test which is hanging, we will definitely fix that.

Hmm... In general the tests should be written such that if it cannot
round-trip the desired Unicode names, the test skips itself, rather than
failing. I know I check for being able to write to the filesystem. I may
be failing to check for output encodings.
