Didn't even think of that problem when I wrote the tests.  Should I patch
the docs for urllib (again  =)  to say that files are open in binary?  I
know I wasn't expecting urllib to open in binary mode for a local text
file.

Thanks for fixing this, Guido.  I think I am going to do a self-imposed
"no checkins within 24 hours of a planned release" rule.
