when writing an external plugin using `proxy.py`, the getstate and setstate
functions don't accept unicode data:
uncaught exception: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe4' in position 25: ordinal not in range(128)
Traceback (most recent call last):

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe4' in position 25: ordinal not in range(128)
the culprit is the last `_debug_fn` invocation in `send_rpc` (line 178), where
unicode data is format-fed into a string. while this could be circumvented by
making the formatting string a unicode string, that would cause trouble with
python3 and we'd just move the problem to the stderr writing later on; instead,
"`cmd, data))`" should become "`cmd, repr(data)))`" and everything is fine.
debug output doesn't look that pretty any more, but is safe.
