Summary: build.py UnicodeDecodeError pywin32-211

Initial Comment:
Hai,

I have a issue with Python 2.5.2/pywin32-211:

>>> 
>>> 
>>> from win32com.client import GetObject
>>> WMI = GetObject('winmgmts:')
>>> Entries = WMI.ExecQuery('select * from Win32_Process where Name="svchost.exe"')

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#5>", line 1, in <module>
    Entries = WMI.ExecQuery('select * from Win32_Process where Name="svchost.exe"')
  File "C:\Programme\Python25\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 467, in __getattr__
    if self._olerepr_.mapFuncs.has_key(attr): return self._make_method_(attr)
  File "C:\Programme\Python25\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 295, in _make_method_
    methodCodeList = self._olerepr_.MakeFuncMethod(self._olerepr_.mapFuncs[name], methodName,0)
  File "C:\Programme\Python25\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\build.py", line 297, in MakeFuncMethod
    return self.MakeDispatchFuncMethod(entry, name, bMakeClass)
  File "C:\Programme\Python25\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\build.py", line 318, in MakeDispatchFuncMethod
    s = linePrefix + 'def ' + name + '(self' + BuildCallList(fdesc, names, defNamedOptArg, defNamedNotOptArg, defUnnamedArg, defOutArg) + '):'
  File "C:\Programme\Python25\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\build.py", line 604, in BuildCallList
    argName = MakePublicAttributeName(argName)
  File "C:\Programme\Python25\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\build.py", line 542, in MakePublicAttributeName
    return filter( lambda char: char in valid_identifier_chars, className)
  File "C:\Programme\Python25\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\build.py", line 542, in <lambda>
    return filter( lambda char: char in valid_identifier_chars, className)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0x83 in position 52: ordinal not in range(128)
>>> 

This error didn't occure on pywin32-210.

Is something wrong with my code?

Thanks
    Prinz
