[issue7865] io close() swallowing exceptions

[Pascal Chambon]

Pascal Chambon <chambon.pascal at gmail.com> added the comment:

I'm quite surprised it wasn't already covered by the test suite :S

Anyway I'm quite confused about the semantic which is expected from IO operations...

Should a flush on a closed stream fail (at the moment sometimes it does, sometimes doesn't) ? Why is sometimes ValueError used when I'd rather expect an IOError ?
