FWIW, there are trailing spurious bytes too (note read() gives bytes,
while readlines() both bytes and strings in 3.0):
>>> import urllib.request; content =
urllib.request.urlopen('http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?mbox=yes;bug=123456').read()

>>> import urllib.request
>>> content =

>>> content[-30:]

>>> content[:10]
b'f65\r\nFrom '
While in 2.6:
>>> import urllib
>>> content =
urllib.urlopen('http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?mbox=yes;bug=123456').read()
>>> content[-30:]
'---END PGP SIGNATURE-----\n\n\n\n\n'
