Fixes compilation with python3

Compilation under Arch Linux failed, because python == python3, and
mangle-tmpl.py attempts to implicitly cast bytes to str: 

  DOC   Scanning header files
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "../../common/mangle-tmpl.py", line 125, in <module>
    main()
  File "../../common/mangle-tmpl.py", line 120, in main
    '<fallback xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude" />' + \
TypeError: Can't convert 'bytes' object to str implicitly
Makefile:976: recipe for target 'tmpl-build.stamp' failed

Attached patch should fix it, but neither do I really know what mangle-tmpl.py
actually does, nor am I much of a python expert, so please review this
mini-patch :)
