Subject: [PATCH] ReadDetectFileobjTest:  repair Windows disasters by opening
 the file object in binary mode.

The Windows buildbot slaves shouldn't swap themselves to death
anymore.  However, test_tarfile may still fail because of a
temp directory left behind from a previous failing run.
Windows buildbot owners may need to remove that directory
by hand.
