I'd guess you want that to be:
return unicodedata.normalize('NFKD', str.decode('UTF-8')).encode('UTF-8');
If you're converting from a utf8 encoding, you probably need to go
back again! This could certainly be made easier though, PG knows what
encoding its strings are stored in, why doesn't it work with unicode
strings by default?
