[New-bugs-announce] [issue17984] io and _pyio modules require the _io module

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:

io and _pyio modules don't usable without the _io module. In particular when 2.7 build without unicode. Why we have a Python implementation if it can't be used as a fallback when a C implementation is not available?
