postfields and unicode objects

Hi,
  using pycurl 7.19.0 and curl 7.19.4. I've found if I submit a unicode
object to the postfields option using setopt() that I get a type error

TypeError: invalid arguments to setopt

if I coerce the unicode object to a string using str(obj) then it works
but that coercion will sometimes fail due to unicode decode problems.

Now, my question: is there any reason this HAS to be a string object and
can't be a unicode object and if so should I file it as an issue with
pycurl?

Thanks,
-sv
