Summary: robotparser.py fails on some URLs

Initial Comment:
I am using Python 2.1.1.

The URL http://www.chaosreigns.com/robots.txt results
in an empty RobotParser object.
Reason is that the file object returned from the
URLOpener does not have a readlines() attribute.

I patched the robotparser.py to use readline() instead
of readlines().
Furthermore I removed the unnecessary redirection limit
code which is already in FancyURLopener.


Greetings, Bastian

I'll gladly apply your patch.

Would you mind to also supply a patch for the copyright
statement?
It says "Python 2.0 open source license" but that's no
longer the current license. How about the PSF license
agreement for Python 2.2?
