The patch univnewlines-20020313 appears to be a plain diff, and for some reason, it doesn't apply cleanly for me, so I may be reading the patch wrongly.

Oops, sorry! There's a new version of the patch that is in context diff format.

The PEP seems to assume that the changed behaviour only apply to .readline() and friends.

Definitely not! It happens on all input methods. I've added a sentence to the pep to clarify this.
