This line:
  ie.symlink_target = data.encode('utf8')
could be changed to:
  ie.symlink_target = data
to prevent a failed conversion (¿from utf8 to utf8?) and to store the symlink really as it is. However, Bazaar doesn't support symlinks to Unicode (in fact, non-ASCII) filenames yet. This bug depends on bug 272444.
