Summary: null bytes in docstrings
Initial Comment:
the following docstrings contain bogus control characters:
module difflib, function _mdiff, contains four invalid bytes:
['\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x01']
module StringIO, method readline, contains a null byte:
['\x00']
since this breaks help() and probably a bunch of other documentation tools, it
would probably be a good idea to add the missing backslashes...

Clearer and simpler to make the whole docstring raw.
