Summary: seek/tell beyond eof without exceptions

Initial Comment:

Methods from FileObject like seek/tell doesn`t check 
for errno value. The result is that python exceptions 
aren`t throwned.

Small example:

import sys
SEEK_END = 2

def main():
	fp=open(sys.argv[0],'rb')
	fp.seek(0,SEEK_END)
	off = fp.tell()
	fp.seek(off,SEEK_END)
	x = fp.tell()
	print 'tell?',x

main()
