I have tried to port this patch to Python 3.4 (still maintained by SUSE on SLE-12), but I have the hardest time to debug this. All affected tests end with errors like this:

yes, it is always a conflict between strict and surrogateescape. I probably don’t have time to finish debugging this, so I am just leaving this for posterity.
