I see. Python is making up the EISDIR, looking at the stat result. In Objects/fileobject.c:dircheck generates the EISDIR error, which apparently comes from posixfdopen, PyFileFromFile, fillfilefields.

Python simply does not support file objects which stat(2) as directories.

OK, does python have a C API that would allow me to create a python file object from my C (C++) code? Then instead of using python's fdopen I could just do it myself.
