I just hope everyone updates both versions when making changes to IO.

My proposal is just organizational, it is neutral in terms of whether or not the
Python version is correctly maintained.

We can hope that the IO lib *semantics* won't change too much in the future
(although there is an IMO legitimate request for a setblocking() method:
http://bugs.python.org/issue949667). On the other hand, I don't expect anyone to
willingly use the Python version if the C version is available.



If they're functionally equivalent and single set of tests is run on both then -- assuming good tests -- breakage would be noticed...
