We're having some really obscure problems with gzip.
There is a program running with python2.7 on a 2.6.18-128.el5xen (red
hat I think) kernel.

Now this program does the following:
if filename == 'out2.txt':
      out2 = open('out2.txt')
elif filename == 'out2.txt.gz'
      out2 = open('out2.txt.gz')
Gzip file is binary. You should open it in binary mode.

out2 = open('out2.txt.gz',"b")

Otherwise carriage return and newline characters will be converted (depending 
on the platform).
