Initial Comment:
Documentation explicitly states that file-like objects 
should return a repr-style psuedoname.  Patch is 
attached.

The documentation also says "This is a read-only attribute and
may not be present on all file-like objects.", so I'm inclined to close
as "won't fix". I'm sure many in-the-wild file-like objects don't support
it, either, so depending on its existence is bad style at best.
