My guess is there is no message because in Python 3, errors are encoded according to PYTHONIOENCODING. Perhaps it works as you expect if you bypass sys.excepthook: $ PYTHONIOENCODING=undefined python -c 'import sys, os; sys.excepthook = lambda *exc: os.write(2, ascii(exc).encode()); print(u"abc")' (<class 'UnicodeError'>, UnicodeError('undefined encoding',), <traceback object at 0xb7037b94>)
