I seem to be getting the same behavior as Steven:

$ python2.7 -c "print u'ñøλπйж'"
ñøλπйж
$ python2.7 -c "import sys; print(sys.stdout.encoding)"
UTF-8
$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE=C
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
$ python2.7 -c "import sys; print(sys.stdin.encoding)"
UTF-8

Also, my GNOME Terminal 3.4.1.1 character encoding is "Unicode (UTF-8)".
