    On Linux and Mac, Python is pretty flexible about whether the
    environment dictionary contains bytestrings or unicode, but Windows is
    stricter. We were initially forcing everything to be bytes, but Python
    3 on Windows wants str, so this change switches to that instead.

    Ran unit tests.
