[New-bugs-announce] [issue27345] GzipFile's readinto() reads gzip data instead of file data.

[Ryan Birmingham]

New submission from Ryan Birmingham:

In cases where libraries try to call readinto(), the results are unexpected (the gzip data). Shouldn't it instead raise UnsupportedOperation for readinto() (and truncate())?
