Log Message:
-----------
BUG: Workaround for the fact the Python 2.4 doesn't accept 'Ub' as a file
mode, but does accept 'rbU'. Note that with either of these modes Python 3
fails to split files with '\r' line endings on linux. This is either a bug
in Python 3 or something that requires more extensive modifications to
genfromtxt. Because genfromtxt now accepts generators it should be possible
to write a generator that opens files in text mode and encodes the lines
as byte streams, and this should provide a workaround.
