Python 3.2 doesn't support Unicode literal syntax
Simonpj noticed that the Python 3.2 interpreter on his Ubuntu 12.04 installation doesn't support Unicode literal syntax (e.g. u'hello'). Indeed it seems this syntax was dropped in Python 3 and later re-introduced in Python 3.3 (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0414/).
At this point we have a decision to make: Either drop the uses of Unicode literals in the driver (and, consequently, support for Python 2) or keep things as they are and demand Python >3.3.
