I don't need it enough to write a patch, but this is what I used instead.. 
and it seems like it might work:

    try:    
        for line in inFile:
            tline = translator(line)
            outFile.write(tline)
    except NotImplementedError:
        BUFFER = 16384
        bytes = inFile.read(BUFFER)
        while bytes:
            lines = bytes.split(u'\n')
            bytes = lines.pop()
            for line in lines:
                tline = translator(line)
                outFile.write(tline)
            newbytes = inFile.read(BUFFER)
            bytes += newbytes
            if not newbytes and bytes:
                bytes += u'\n'
