That's more or less exactly what I meant by the following: "I think it is perfectly reasonable to not have os.open and friends on pypy.net as long as file works. If another placeof pypy still uses os.open I am strongly for fixing that." But it was probably confusing, because it mixed the applevel os.open (first occurrence) with the interplevel os.oppen (second occurrence). Thanks for clarifying.
