I get the following error using bzr fast-export (using Python 2.5.2):

bzr: ERROR: exceptions.SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xc3' in file /home/gioele/.bazaar/plugins/fastimport/bzr_exporter.py on line 17, but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details (bzr_exporter.py, line 17)

Yes. There must be "coding" header in the python source file. The attached patch fixes the issue.
