I don't like this assert either: this function is part of the public API, and should not crash the interpreter just because of a trailing \. To test easily: import ctypes decode = ctypes.pythonapi.PyUnicodeUCS2_DecodeUnicodeEscape decode.restype = ctypes.py_object decode(b'\\1', 1, None) This should gently raise a UnicodeDecodeError IMO.

decode.restype = ctypes.py_object
decode(b'\\1', 1, None)
