[Buildbot-devel] utf-8 woes

0xe2 = 226 dec. It is not the \n sign. It's somewhere in the 'text' 
object (at byte 54-55 I'd guess).

Printing 'text' to log/stdout and tying to locate the source of the 
offending character would help you track down the bug.

(It might be a BB bug, as unicode-ness is relatively new.)

cheers,
