[issue4631] urlopen returns extra, spurious bytes

[Jeremy Hylton]

Jeremy Hylton <jeremy at alum.mit.edu> added the comment:

I have a patch here that seems to work for the specific url and that
passes all the tests.  Can anyone check whether it works for a larger
set of cases?

I'm a little concerned because I don't understand the new io library in
much detail.  There's an override for _checkClosed() in the HTTPResponse
that seems a little dodgy.  I'll try to get someone to review that
specifically.
