Hi,
I didn't have the possibility to test the fix during the last days (hopefully will do 
in the next hours) but taking a look at the fix proposed by ralphm 

http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/changeset/36867

it seems like the patch is not complete because a similar check (and potential 
conversion) should be inserted in the twisted.names.dns.Name __init__ method 
too. Am I wrong?

Ciao,
