New submission from Jean-Paul Calderone <[email protected]>:
cStringIO and file both accept -1 to readline to mean the same thing as
not passing any argument at all. StringIO, on the other hand, gets
totally confused:
>>> from StringIO import StringIO
>>> StringIO('a\nb\nfoo').readline(-1)
'a\nb\nfo'
>>>

title: StringIO.StringIO.readline(-1) returns the wrong result compared to
other file-like objects
