A quote from Cython documentation:
"The other direction, i.e. automatic encoding to C strings, is only supported
for the ASCII codec (and the “default encoding”, which is runtime specific
and may or may not be ASCII). This is because CPython handles the memory
management in this case by keeping an encoded copy of the string alive
together with the original unicode string. Otherwise, there would be no way
to limit the lifetime of the encoded string in any sensible way, thus
rendering any attempt to extract a C string pointer from it a dangerous
endeavour."
Cython plays it safe and we can't live with ASCII-only; reverting to
our earlier "hacks" for string conversion.
