Marcus Gröber added the comment:
I came across this today as well. A short way of summarizing this error seems
to be:
Reading a file using readline (or "for line in file") fails, if the following
two conditions are true:
• A codec (e.g. UTF-8) for a multi-byte encoding is used, and
• The first line of the file is at least 73 bytes long, and contains a
multi-byte-sequence that starts before offset 72, and ends after offset 72
At least for UTF-8 input files, it may be possible to work around this by
opening the input file without a codec, and then applying decode("utf-8") to
each line.
