The python that's inside stage 1 or 2 is built with a minimal
configuration which does not include the /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/encodings
directory. This results in error like the following:
LookupError: no codec search functions registered: can't find encoding
In order to solve this problem, detect it early and manually register
a search function for the ascii codec. Starting with python-3.0 this
problem is more noticeable because of stricter handling of encoding
and decoding between strings of characters and bytes.
