It should fix sparc 3.x and 3.1 failures.

tarfile is now able to read and write pax headers with a
"hdrcharset=BINARY" record. This record was introduced in
POSIX.1-2008 as a method to store unencoded binary strings that
cannot be translated to UTF-8. In practice, this is just a workaround
that allows a tar implementation to store filenames that do not
comply with the current filesystem encoding and thus cannot be
decoded correctly.
Additionally, tarfile works around a bug in current versions of GNU
tar: undecodable filenames are stored as-is in a pax header without a
"hdrcharset" record being added. Technically, these headers are
invalid, but tarfile manages to read them correctly anyway.

_PyUnicode_AsDefaultEncodedString() uses a magical PyUnicode attribute to
automatically destroy PyUnicode_EncodeUTF8() result when the unicode string is
destroyed.

PyObject_Print() writes into the C object stderr, whereas PySys_WriteStderr()
writes into the Python object sys.stderr. Each object has its own buffer, so
call sys.stderr.flush() and fflush(stderr).

 * Replace os.defpath instead of os.get_exec_path() to test also
   os.get_exec_path()
 * Use contextlib.contextmanager, move the mockup outside the class, and
   the mockup returns directly the call list object
 * Use two different contexts for the two tests
 * Use more revelant values and names
