I tried this on windows 2000:

>>> # create a file with some text
>>> open("delete.me","w").write("some text\n")
>>>
>>> fp = open("delete.me", "r+t")
>>> fp.readline()
'some text\n'
>>> fp.write("New line \n")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
IOError: [Errno 0] Error

On all 2.x versions of python I tried (2.4, 2.5.1, 2.5.2, 2.6b1, some
compiled with VS7.1, some with VS8.0)

With python3.0, there is no error, and the "New line" is appended at the
end of the file.
