@yarikoptic is this still recurring on master? it should skip this test now (as py2.3.1) doesn't support the encoding properly

[jreback]

@yarikoptic this still failing? can we close?

[yarikoptic]

according to
http://nipy.bic.berkeley.edu/builders/pandas-py2.x-wheezy-sparc/builds/384/steps/shell_4/logs/stdio
it is indeed skipped on wheezy, so I guess 'fixed in master' ;)
