[issue6664] readlines should understand Line Separator and Paragraph Separator characters

[Jeffrey Finkelstein]

Jeffrey Finkelstein <jeffrey.finkelstein at gmail.com> added the comment:

This seems to be because codecs.StreamReader.readlines() function does this:

    def readlines(self, sizehint=None, keepends=True):
        data = self.read()
        return data.splitlines(keepends)

But the io readlines() functions make multiple calls to readline() instead.

Here is the test case which passes on the codecs readlines() but fails on the io readlines().
