Yeah, we need to figure out where we are getting that message from, and
how to make sure to format and interpret it properly. It may be that we
need to catch WindowsError and decode its message using
locale.getpreferredencoding(). Or maybe we can be lucky and there will
be a Unicode api for FormatMessage:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms679351%28VS.85%29.aspx

So rather than formatting the WindowsError using str(), we would do a
custom call to FormatMessageW(WindowsError.winerrno, ...)

We have to be a bit careful because of Python's habit of using str() on
exceptions, and that has to return a plain 8-bit string, rather than a
Unicode string, etc.

I think it is possible to fix, but we need some real test data, as it is
highly platform dependent.
