Public bug reported:

'test_name_with_non_printable_characters' in the 'test_flavors' unit
tests checks to see that a non-printable character cannot be allowed in
a flavor name. This fails in python 3.7.

The reason it fails is because in Python 3.7 the 'unicodedata' package
was updated [1] to Unicode 11 and what's printable has changed.

The fix to the problem is to use a _really_ unprintable unicode char,
according unicode 11.
