| self.frontend is in unicode format

The traceback states:

      File "/Users/vwirz/gc3pie/src/gc3pie/gc3libs/backends/ec2.py",
line 771, in submit_job
        ret = resource.submit_job(job)
      File "/Users/vwirz/gc3pie/src/gc3pie/gc3libs/backends/shellcmd.py",
line 694, in submit_job
        % (self.frontend, stderr))

How do we know the problem is `self.frontend` and not `stderr` (which
might well contain non-ASCII characters if one is using localized
error messages)?

| need to check first which version of GC3Pie is she running

Indeed: can you ask her to provide the output of these two commands:

    gservers --version

    gservers

| shall we ask first to upgrade to latest trunk version ?

No.  Let's ask her to upgrade only when we know the problem is fixed
by upgrading.

I've tried to address this in SVN r3746 (trunk) and r3747 (branches/2.1).

The idea is to avoid using '%' and instead pushing all formatting down to the 
`logging` subsystem, who should know best how to handle Unicode.

I gather the issue was user-side, and this can now be closed.
