Just for the record, the zipfile.ZipFile.__init__ maps "r" to open the
file with "rb", so that's not the issue.

Your suggestion about opening the file to write in binary mode is a
good one, but I'd just suggest using ZipFile.extract(...) which is
built in and takes care of writing the file for you. :-)
