Working with the new Build 132 of Pythonwin the German Umlauts are not handled properly in the editor windows. How can we fix this?

PythonWin does something strange with the Norwegian character å. How can I fix this?

132 defaults to using Unicode for editing Python source code and the
interactive window. To stop this, open 
Pythonwin\pywin\scintilla\view.py, find the OnInitialUpdate method and 
comment out the two lines under "# Enable Unicode if we can". Save the 
file, shut down Pythonwin and restart it and see if this fixes the 
problem.
