#360 ruamel.yaml, big endian failure in yaml.load

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Fails with Big Endian platform

#!/usr/bin/python3
from io import BytesIO
from ruamel.yaml import YAML
yaml = YAML(typ='safe')

f = BytesIO(b"""\
format: multiarch-hints-1.0
hints:

- binary: coinor-libcoinmp-dev
  description: coinor-libcoinmp-dev conflicts on ...
  link: https://wiki.debian.org/MultiArch/Hints#file-conflict
  severity: high
  source: coinmp
  version: 1.8.3-2+b11
""")
yaml.load(f)

This fails with

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 16, in <module>
    yaml.load(f)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ruamel/yaml/main.py", line 343, in load
    return constructor.get_single_data()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ruamel/yaml/constructor.py", line 111, in get_single_data
    node = self.composer.get_single_node()

ruamel.yaml.reader.ReaderError: unacceptable character #x0000: control characters are not allowed

Can you please have a look? this seems to happen with the 0.16.12 version, please see this downstream bug:

thanks for having a look

This is now in the separate ruamel.yaml.clib repository, so reposting this ticket there...
