Re-reading this, are you saying that this failure is on MacOS9 only?

Correct. Or, to be hyper-correct: it fails in MacPython 2.2.X on OSX as well, but not in unix-Python 2.2.X on OSX.

That test passes just fine on OSX 10.2 and the data looks just fine to me, so this must be an OS9 failure only.

Maybe the thing to do is to open msg26.txt in binary mode, but only on MacOS9?

Doesn't work, now the assert just above that fails (the payload length is 0 in stead of 2), so I think this breaks the boundary separation or somesuch. I've added code to simply skip this test for MacPython 2.2.X, how do you feel about that?
