This is related to http://bugs.python.org/issue8601 "bz2.BZ2File should support "with" protocol per PEP 343"

The documentation at http://docs.python.org/library/bz2.html states:

   "This module provides a comprehensive interface for the bz2 compression library. It implements a complete file interface,..." 

although bz2.BZ2File does not support the __enter__ and __exit__ methods so arguably doesn't implement the "complete file interface". If issue8601 is declined then the documentation should probably note this exception.
