Content
I'm not home to check, but judging by the error message and previous discussions with other developers, it seems indeed like an issue with a non-ASCII character in my hostname. I've changed my hostname since then, so I'm going to close this as won't fix. If it turns out that the issue is still present, I'll re-open it. More details: I'm 90% sure that the issue is that Windows encodes non-ASCII characters as 'cp1252' (at least on my machine); subsequently trying to decode as 'ascii' or 'utf-8' doesn't work and throws an error. There's already another open issue about this (#26226).
