New issue 220 by st...-D1FsSgkXXbW1h8DMDp+***@public.gmane.org: cannot read html5lib in jython
http://code.google.com/p/html5lib/issues/detail?id=220

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Reproducible in Jython 2.5.2 and Jython 2.7b1

import html5lib

import html5lib
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "lib/html5lib/__init__.py", line 14, in <module>
from html5parser import HTMLParser, parse, parseFragment
File "lib/html5lib/html5parser.py", line 33, in <module>
import inputstream
UnicodeDecodeError: 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position
48-54: illegal Unicode character


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
jython cannot read inputstream.py.

Please provide any additional information below.

inputstream.py contains some seriously broken Unicode characters in the
range 0xD800-0xDFFF, which are known as "unpaired surrogates".

This has been closed as wont-fix: http://bugs.jython.org/issue1836

It may be necessary to modify inputstream.py to not use these unicode
character literals when running in Jython.

n.b. a test for Jython:
import platform
JYTHON = (platform.system() == 'Java')

As I just commented on the Jython bug, I believe this is a bug in Jython
not implemented Python as it is documented. I don't particularly want to
add in hacks for a bug in Jython.
