Using eselect locale to set a UTF-8 locale may help in some cases.
Fixed in git https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/gentoolkit.git/commit/?id=308e33dc9e0cba958a583d86799dcb660ba39cb1 As an aside, I despise how Python is dependent on locale settings for unicode, finding all the places to explicitly encode has been painful.
