Incorrect unicode conversion between python object and javascript object on FreeBSD

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I compiled PyV8 under freebsd, and got following error:

with JSContext() as c:
    c.locals.s = u"测试"
    print len(c.locals.s)    # this will print 1, instead of 2

    c.locals.s = u"1234"
    print len(c.locals.s)    # this will print 1, instead of 4

In fact assign an unicode to JSContext will always return its length as 1.

After dig into the code, I found this is caused because on my FreeBSD the
python unicode is defined as UCS4 - the wide unicode (on win32, it will be
UCS2) this caused a problem when converting python unicode to v8::String in
CPythonObject::Wrap() method.

I patched the method to check if python is using UCS4 or UCS2 to determine
how to convert python unicode to v8::String.

Attached is the patched Wrapper.cpp, line 458-470 is modified.
