[pylucene-dev] volunteering

[Andi Vajda]

I've reworked your samples a little and found some interesting issues.
I improved python<->string support to include unicode. When passing a python 
string to java, unless it is unicode, the assumed encoding is utf-8. If that 
is not the case, unhappy behaviour ensues. I changed the IndexFiles.py sample 
to pass a unicode string to PyLucene. Also, closing an IndexSearcher causes a 
stack overflow, something rather disturbing.

I'm checking those in now, if you want to polish them up more, I suggest you 
start with what is checked in, it would make merging easier.
