Be sure to use UTF-8:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

But don't do anything yet; read on.

I see; it's in the comments.

I think it's actually only on the first import after an edit or other
change (svn up).  The warning is happening on byte-code compile.  Once
compiled, the .pyc files contain no offending text (comments are
ignored).

We don't use $Id$.  Perhaps you mean $Date$ or $Revision$?  What do
they expand to?  What encoding is used?  If it's UTF-8, we may be OK.
If it's your locale's default encoding, we're in trouble, because
every system could be different.
