[issue4847] csv fails when file is opened in binary mode

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

You can avoid the newline translation problem by using the newline
parameter in open(). Set it to '' (the empty string) and any CR and LF
characters should remain intact.

As for the original problem, IMHO it is a documentation bug.
