Summary: urllib.py overwrite HTTPError code with 200

Initial Comment:
I found this bug while trying to understand why a 404
Not Found error was reported as a 200 Not Found.

Turns out the HTTPError's self.code is overwritten with
200 after
the 404 was correctly assigned.

The attached patch fixes the problem.
