I may have found the mother of all inconsitency warts when comparing
the zipfile and tarfile modules. Not only are the API's different, but
the entry and exits are differnet AND zipfile/tarfile do not behave

>>> import os
>>> os.path.ex

the zipfile and tarfile modules. Not only are the API's different, but
the entry and exits are differnet AND zipfile/tarfile do not behave
like proper file objects should.
