[issue10588] imp.find_module raises unexpected SyntaxError

[Benjamin Peterson]

Benjamin Peterson <benjamin at python.org> added the comment:

The reason for this is that file_module tries to detect the encoding of the file to set the encoding for the opened file. IMO, it should just return a file in binary mode.
