+        # This should be readline(self, size=-1), but httplib in python 
2.4 and
+        #  2.5 defines a SSLFile wrapper whose readline method lacks 
the size
+        #  parameter.  So until we drop support for 2.4 and 2.5 and 
since we
+        #  don't *need* the size parameter we'll stay with 
readline(self)
+        #  --  vila 20090209
Can't we just add a check for the Python version here, and only use this 
hack when Python < 2.6 ?
