I have tried to use code page 65001 and it didn't work for me even if
I did use a version of Python (possibly 3.3 alpha) that claimed to
support it. It turned out that there were other Windows related
problems with using the codepage so that I had to do something like

chcp 65001 && python myscript.py && chcp 2521

(It was important for all those commands to be on the same line) I'm
not on Windows right now and I can't remember all the details but I
seem to remember that even with that awkwardness and changing the font
it still didn't actually work.

If you know how to make it work, I'd be interested to know.
