This bug seems to break help(C-module) in py3k after rev 70587:
>>> import pickle
>>> help(pickle)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "~/py3k/Lib/site.py", line 429, in __call__
return pydoc.help(*args, **kwds)
File "~/py3k/Lib/pydoc.py", line 1709, in __call__
self.help(request)
File "~/py3k/Lib/pydoc.py", line 1755, in help
else: doc(request, 'Help on %s:')
File "~/py3k/Lib/pydoc.py", line 1505, in doc
pager(render_doc(thing, title, forceload))
File "~/py3k/Lib/pydoc.py", line 1500, in render_doc
return title % desc + '\n\n' + text.document(object, name)
File "~/py3k/Lib/pydoc.py", line 320, in document

lines, lnum = findsource(object)
File "~/py3k/Lib/inspect.py", line 524, in findsource
lines = linecache.getlines(file, module.__dict__)
File "~/py3k/Lib/linecache.py", line 41, in getlines
return updatecache(filename, module_globals)
File "~/py3k/Lib/linecache.py", line 130, in updatecache
lines = fp.readlines()
File "~/py3k/Lib/codecs.py", line 300, in decode
(result, consumed) = self._buffer_decode(data, self.errors, final)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x80 in position 24:
unexpected code byte
brodierao's patch fixes it.
