unicode questions

Hello.

I have some questions about unicode handling into cheetah. 

The directive "#encoding CODEC" must add "# -*- coding: CODEC -*-" into
compilled version of template. But it doen't work. Actually it work, but
only for templates compiled by command line tools cheetah-compile. When
I compile same template from python module using
Cheetah.Compiler.Compiler class it doesn't work.

And all non ascii string into compiled template become u'\u0421\u043e
\u0437'... It can be fixed?

And one more related(may be) issue - while rendering template give this
warning:
2010-11-15 01:20:29,390 4216 [   DEBUG:root] Trying to work around a
UnicodeDecodeError in getvalue()
2010-11-15 01:20:29,391 4216 [   DEBUG:root] ...perhaps you could fix "%
s" while you're debugging

What shoul I change to fix it? What info you need to understand what
wrong?

All templates stored in utf-8.

$ cheetah version
2.4.3
$ python --version
Python 2.6.5
$ uname -sr
Linux 2.6.35-gentoo-r4
