分析原因：

网上搜索资料，讲这是Python 2 mimetypes的bug

解决方法：

修改Python2.7/lib/mimetypes.py文件，添加部分如下所示：

import os
import sys
import posixpath
import urllib
####添加部分如下#####
if sys.getdefaultencoding() != 'gbk':
    reload(sys) 
    sys.setdefaultencoding('gbk')

添加后运行结果：

Installed c:\python27\lib\site-packages\lx
Processing dependencies for lxml
Finished processing dependencies for lxml
