    http://docs.python.org/lib/module-urllib.html
    The page says that the return type of urlopen().info() is a
    mimetools.Message object, which is not quite true; it is a
    httplib.HTTPMessage object, which is a class derived from
    mimetools.Message, but with additional features.

    The httplib.HTTPMessage class is not documented at all, for which I will
    file a separate bug.

    I'm including 2.7, as it also has this documentation problem. The rest
    of the documentation is correct.

    I know there is still work to be done on bpo-4773, which might affect
    this doc.
