Hi

I have been able to reproduce this on a testing system, but no in my
unstable chroot. I noticed that each time I run the test, the byte value
in question changed and eventually (given enough runs) it will succeed,
but add a character to the manifest.
   I am at a loss to the reason of the problem and also why it works in
my unstable chroot - python-debian and python-minimal had same version
in testing and my chroot and messing with locale did not seem to fix it.

Hi,

I guess that there is some random factor in place, and for me it looks like a C-alike wrong pointer: so for me it's an error in an underlying python library implemented in C/C++ (don't know in which language python itself is written; I'm assuming that python itself doesn't work with pointers). The only remaining question is probably: which library? and then the bug could be reassigned.
