Public bug reported:

A new test added in r128 seems to have exposed an existing Python 3
issue, and fails:

======================================================================
ERROR: testtools.tests.test_content.TestBytesContent.test_bytes

------------

Can't be using str.join for bytes on Pythons where str is a unicode
type.
