}}}

This can be fixed by changing line 115 of [http://pyyaml.org/browser/pysyck/trunk/lib/syck/dumpers.py dumpers.py] from 
{{{
        except UnicodeDecodeError:
}}}

to 
{{{
        except (UnicodeDecodeError, UnicodeEncodeError):
}}}

I left the UnicodeDecodeError in the except clause, but I don't think catching it is necessary unless _syck.Scalar(...) can raise a UnicodeDecodeError (I wasn't certain of this, nor am I sure how to find out).

Feel free to contact me for more info."	defect	new	normal	pysyck	normal
