[PyQt] Unable to connect signals to Python slots with non-ASCII names

[Shriramana Sharma]

Hello. This is related to my recent post. I'm using PyQt
5.5.1+dfsg-3ubuntu4 with Py 3.5.1-3 default on Kubuntu Xenial 64 bit.
I'm using non-ASCII words for user-defined
variables and methods. Actually it's in an Indic script but for
readers' convenience as minimal example I give the attached code with
French.

I am connecting a signal to a Python method with non-ASCII name.
Trying to execute the app results in a segfault. The fix is to replace
the function name (as in line 9) with a bare lambda that calls the
function (commented in line 10).
