Message 219788 - Python tracker

After this patch, some of the values in mimetypes.types_map now appear as unicode instead of str in Python 2.7.7 under Windows. For compatibility and consistency reasons, I think this should be fixed so that all values are returned as str again under Python 2.7.

See https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/pylons-devel/bq8XiKlGgv0 for a real world issue which I think is caused by this bugfix.
