+ - The UTF-16, -LE and -BE now raise a NotImplementedError
+   for all calls to .readline(). Previously, they used to just
+   produce garbage or fail with an encoding error -- UTF-16 is
+   a 2-byte encoding and the C lib's line reading APIs don't
+   work well with these.
+ 
  - compileall now supports quiet operation.
