[issue12638] urllib.URLopener prematurely deletes files on cleanup

[Carl]

Carl <carl at carlbook.com> added the comment:

@orsenthil, that is the correct behavior if you do not want to override any of URLopener's handlers for error codes.  In my case, I wanted to override FancyURLopener (a child class of URLopener) to override HTTP 401 behavior.  Using urlretrieve is not correct in this case.

Also included python 3.2 code, I didn't test 3.1.
