[lldb-dev] something just toasted the test suite on OS X

It's in item 3 from Effective Python, by Brett Slatkin, which goes over
having methods that always go to unicode or to byte streams taking either
unicode or byte style strings, for both Python 2 and Python 3.  Essentially
you figure out what you want it to be in, and you write a couple helper
routes to go in either the "to unicode" or the "to bytes" direction.  It
basically looks at the type of the string/bytes you give it, and makes sure
it becomes what you need.  It's going to assume an encoding like utf-8.
