Decode a string from the current locale encoding. The supported
error handlers are ``"strict"`` and ``"surrogateescape"``
(:pep:`383`). The decoder uses ``"strict"`` error handler if
- *errors* is ``NULL``. If a byte sequence can be decoded as a
- surrogate character and *errors* is not ``"strict"``, then the byte
- sequence is escaped using the ``"surrogateescape"`` error handler
- instead of being decoded. *str* must end with a null character but
+ *errors* is ``NULL``. *str* must end with a null character but
cannot contain embedded null characters.
