Seems like your problem is with Python's handling of filename encoding
and/or file name encoding in the filesystem.
In short, nothing to do with pycurl (yet).

Unicode is hard when file system allows invalid byte sequences, that's
properly solved only in Python 3:
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0383/

I don't know if that is your problem, or something else is.
this mailing list is not really the right place to ask.

to get to pycurl issue (if there is one), you have to get your code to
a state when you can do:

open(unicode_filename, "rb") # in Python, and
fopen(encoded_filename, "rb"); // in C

I bet when you get to that stage, your pycurl code will work too.
