On some systems, conversion using the file system encoding may
- fail. In this case, Python uses the ``utf8b`` encoding error
- handler, which means that undecodable bytes are replaced by a
+ fail. In this case, Python uses the ``surrogateescape`` encoding
+ error handler, which means that undecodable bytes are replaced by a
Unicode character U+DCxx on decoding, and these are again
translated to the original byte on encoding.
