Summary

Sybren's last name gave me an encoding error while running setup.py so I specified utf-8 character encoding. It builds fine for me now.

That's strange, as UTF-8 is the default anyway. Are you building using Python 3.5, or using 2.7?

I build from source, so I use a virtual environment pointing to the python build from install_deps.sh (3.5.1).

Can you give me the exact error (with traceback), and your OS & version?

Apparently today really isn't my day. I couldn't reproduce it, even after cleaning out the repo. It took me looking through my bash history to find out that, yes, I was using py 2.7... only to activate my venv and try again. Obviously I'm a colossal idiot when I'm tired. I can't close or delete the patch. Sorry for wasting your time.
