In the "New, Improved and Removed Modules" section of
"What's new in Python 2.5", it is said to be new that a
tarfile's compression can be autodetected using mode
"r|*". This is not quite right.

New about the "r|*" mode is that it can autodetect
compression of a tarfile opened in *stream mode* which
was not possible before.

Attached is a patch against whatsnew25.tex in current
SVN HEAD.
