Not as far as I know, though it would certainly be possible to write
one.  Without such an extension, you'd have to run a bzip2 subprocess
to handle compression or decompression.  By the way,
http://www.vex.net/parnassus/ is the best place to search for whether
a Python module exists.

To my battle-scarred mind, documentation is never more than a hint. Read it
once with disbelief suspended, and then again with full throttle skepticism.
