You are right:

try:
    for line in f:
       do_something()
except UnicodeDecodeError:
    do_something_different()

does exactly what one would expect it to do. 

Thank you very much for pointing this out and sorry for all the posts. This is one of the days when nothing seems to work and when I don't seem to able to read the simplest error message.
