Odd -- according to the Python unicode howto, the filesystem library
calls should automagically convert unicode filenames into legal values
for the underlying filesystem. When I added some code to try to
figure out exactly what was going on, I found that I can no longer
download using the .amz file containing the problematic track.
Do .amz files expire?

yes .amz files expire. You can typically download the tracks a couple times
back to back in a short time window, then the url's expire.

While that's an understandable and reasonable thing for Amazon to do,
it would seem to make development work on a downloader difficult.
How does one test changes?

Well, given that amazon DES encrypts the .amz file, I don't think they are very
supportive of community efforts to build a downloader :)
That said, I uploaded some mp3's to my own server and created a .amz file with
the urls pointing there, then re-encrypted the file. I use that "fake" amz for
testing.

Setting up a test server was the only thing I could think of. I
probably won't have time to set up something like that for a while.
