[New-bugs-announce] [issue19223] bz2 and 'x' mode open

[Tim Heaney]

New submission from Tim Heaney:

This is analogous to issue19201, but for bz2. Recent versions of Python have an 'x' mode for open, but bz2 doesn't support it. It looks like everything is passed to builtins.open eventually, so if we just allow the 'x' option to pass through, all will be well.
