Haha, that looks fun.
However, there is already some code handling non-UTF-8 cases. I am not sure why this isn't triggering for you, but it sure is for me when I run the snippets you specified.
Have you encountered this problem on a real-life machine or were you just mucking around with running non-UTF-8 stuff?
Cheers for finding inconsistent behavior anyway!

I ran it on the system and terminal I always use, using the configuration I use for pretty much all my computing.
The Python version I ran it under is 2.7.11. I know Python 2 has different string encoding handling than Python 3, so that may be the cause of it.
Script does not do appropriate checking of terminal LC_CTYPE locale to test whether the terminal can accept UTF-8 characters. This results in corrupt output.
Suggestion: Transform strings into acceptable character set before outputting.
