Comment:
Fix for a bug reported in c.l.p by Wade Leftwich: StreamReader ignores
the errors parameter passed to its constructor:

import codecs
from StringIO import StringIO
encode, decode, reader, writer = codecs.lookup('UTF-8')
s = 'ab\346c'
print decode(s, 'replace')
# outputs (u'ab\uFFFDc', 4)
fh = StringIO(s)
sr = reader(fh, 'replace')
print repr(sr.read())
# dies with a UnicodeError exception

Randomly assigning to Barry -- this just needs a quick sanity check
