tests: fixed test too dependent on actual exception wording

On one of the machines I use to run the tests prior to submission,
the default Python is 2.7.5, with the following wording:

  must be encoded string without NULL bytes, not str

This third form (and possible future ones) are motivation to
use a wider catching regexp.

#!/usr/bin/env python

from __future__ import absolute_import, print_function

import errno
import os
import sys

for f in sys.argv[1:]:
    try:
        print(f, '->', os.readlink(f))
    except OSError as err:
        if err.errno != errno.EINVAL:
            raise
        print(f, '->', f, 'not a symlink')

sys.exit(0)
