Do you mean special-case handling of the circumstance when the file-like object 
being marshalled from is actually a file? The existing code paths (from when 
marshal.load expected only to work with Python file objects) use FILE *, and 
these are used by other code to read magic numbers etc. I believe. Or perhaps 
I'm still misunderstanding what you're getting at.
