In ebb8c7d79f52 the file Lib/test/testbz2_bigmem.bz2 was added as test case for bug #14398.

The PSRT and webmaster teams have received half a dozen mails which complains about potential harmful content in the Python installers and Python source distribution. Apparently the file triggers a warning in several anti virus programs because it looks like a zip bomb.

I suggest that we remove the file from hg and create it on the fly during tests runs.
