I have not found any mention about the encoding of .pypirc files. Currently distutils uses the locale encoding for reading and writing them. It makes them potentially nonportable if they contain non-ASCII data (not sure if it is possible) and depending on the user settings.

I think that if the only ASCII content is allowed, it would be safer to use explicit ASCII encoding. If non-ASCII content is allowed, then it may be worth always to use UTF-8. What do you think?
