Description:

Apparently, the print_help method of the OptionParser class from the
optparse module is unable to cope when stdout is a binary stream.
After all, it's writing a text string.
So we need to call sys.stdout.detach() after optparse has done its thing.
Patch is attached.
I'm not really sure whose bug this is, anyway. Looks upstream to me,
but you patched the package.

Steps to reproduce:
markdown_py --help
   markdown.py3.patch (0.3 KiB)
This task depends upon

Fixed in -5.

I'm just following upstream git while they are not releasing an update.
