As reported at https://github.com/jythontools/jython/issues/88, Unicode text written via openpyxl is mishandled in Jython and not in CPython. openpyxl is not itself supplied as part of Jython, but uses xml.etree which is and appears to handle encoding differently from the CPython equivalent. Initial investigation will involve openpyxl, but we should try to demonstrate (and create a test for) the problem that does not depend on openpyxl. Superficially similar to #2632, and showing up about the same time, this probably does not have the same cause.
