TracException should have `__unicode__()` method for non ASCII message

[Shun-ichi Goto <shunichi.goto@…>]

While playing with i18n branch, there's a problem to raise exception with translated message. TracException class should have __unicode__() method to use non-ASCII exception message. Otherwise, we will get UnicodeEncodeError. (Ex., see changeset.py line 878)

This issue is realized on i18n branch code, but 0.11-dev trunk code has also.

I second this--I just ran into the same problem. It's an easy fix, and should be included in 0.11.

Well, this unicode(self.message) won't work if self.message itself is not already convertible to unicode, but I guess that would be yet another problem.

So actually the patch looks good.

Committed in r6984 (on the i18n branch as well, where the reporter discovered the issue and where I was able to reproduce it).

Should land on trunk when the branch gets merged.

I think it can be backported to 0.11-stable as well.

Ok for the backport?

Committed as [7397] on 0.11-stable. Thanks for the patch!
