Really? I wasn't entirely aware of this effect of the "io" module.
Somehow, without at all paying attention (because certain third party
modules blocking me for awhile, I never looked close enough), I just
sort of thought the "io" module was mostly thin wrappers around stdio
primitives, into a more Pythonic API.

This actually makes me long for Python 3 more. And adjust agendas to
push my day-job work to 2.7 as soon as possible, and start a preemptive
reconfiguration to support a future Py3k migration.
