In the morning, I had a comment on the patch wondering why read _MAXLENGH + 1 and then check for len of header > _MAXLENGH. Instead of just reading _MAXLENGH (and if the length matched rejecting). ( Looks like it did not go through).

I think that either way is okay. I am taking the privilege of committing the patch. Fixed for py3k in 87373. So it is be available in the next beta.

Shall merge the changes to other codelines.

----------
resolution:  -> fixed
