How do you catch a unicodedecode error encountered in python and print out what the offending string is?
i.e. "... can't decode byte XXXX in position 8: invalid start byte"

This should get you started:
try:
s = '\xFEFEF'
u = s.decode('utf8')
except UnicodeDecodeError as e:
for p in dir(e):
if not p.startswith('_'):
print '%s=%r' % (p, getattr(e, p))
Result:
args=('utf8', '\xfeFEF', 0, 1, 'invalid start byte')
encoding='utf8'
end=1
message=''
object='\xfeFEF'
reason='invalid start byte'
start=0
