This bug from the Ubuntu list is being moved here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-defaults/+bug/570737

Newlines support is enabled on Ubuntu but the example from:

http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0278/

Does not give the correct results (of True):

    if hasattr(open, 'newlines'):
            print 'We have universal newline support'

I don't know if this is a documentation problem or whether there is another attr that matters here.
