Python 2.1 just finished installing. unicode() does only work on strings 
in Python 2.1, not on other types like lists:

=== Begin ===
sascha@cube:~$ python2.1
Python 2.1.3 (#1, Aug 27 2003, 02:37:56)
[GCC 3.2.3 20030422 (Gentoo Linux 1.4 3.2.3-r1, propolice)] on linux2
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> unicode([])
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, list found
>>>
=== End ===

My code has been tested under Python 2.2.3/Linux/x86, so Python 2.2 
should suffice, at least on modern unices.
