Really we are talking about Python 2.7 here. Anyone having this problem *has* to work it around in order for their code to work on published versions. The benefit of fixing this in the next 2.7.x iteration is small compared to the cost of a potential regression in the core I/O implementation. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21199> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
