I think that that patch that Victor committed is incorrect, and that Thomas's patch is closer to correct.  People *do* use linecache with files other than python source files, and as far as I can see we are not going to stop supporting that.  Given the original docs the intent clearly was that the interface be general, not python-file-specific.
