Description Joseph Pecoraro 2014-04-03 16:06:31 PDT
I occasionally see this error on build bots:

    worker/5: UnicodeDecodeError(''ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 344: ordinal not in range(128)') raised:
        File ".../OpenSource/Tools/Scripts/webkitpy/common/message_pool.py", line 255, in run
          worker.handle(message.name, message.src, *message.args)

Can we just avoid ascii here? Or at least prevent the exception?

This is probably due to: http://trac.buildbot.net/ticket/2385
