I've been using the "feedparser" module, and it turns out that some RSS feeds don't quite do RSS right. [...] It's something that "feedparser" should perhaps do.
Better to ask the author than post here, I think. And even if feedparser were a standard module, it's better to file a feature request in the tracker (http://bugs.python.org)
