Can you save your file in gbk encoding? That will be an immediate fix.

I don't know that we can/should change the encoding we read without checking with everyone who writes out .pth files. (+Jason as a start here, but I suspect there are more tools that write them.)

We could add a handler for UnicodeDecodeError that falls back on utf-8? I think that's reasonable.
