R. David Murray added the comment:

This requires (1) a doc update to indicate the problem and (2) a way to tell 
fileinput to *not* use readlines to optimize by calling readlines(bufsize), 
since in the case of using codecs it can be a problem.  Presumably buffer=None 
would be the logical way to spell this.
I'm marking this as a doc bug, a separate issue should be opened for adding the 
fileinput buffer=None enhancement.

(The codec module's comments indicate there's no practical way to implement 
sizehint.)
