Ah! I knew this was a bzr plot to hinder 1.0 release!

I disagree. Python doc clearly states:
"""
Note: File-like objects which do not have a real file descriptor should not provide this method!
"""
So reading fileno() carelessly was a bug, though irrelevant to the current issue.

A second fix testing for positive or nul fileno() is in crew.

Thanks for providing the test.
