title: pickle.load() raising EOFError in Windows
body: <p>This is how the code is </p>
  
  <pre><code>with open(pickle_f, 'r') as fhand:
      obj = pickle.load(fhand)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This works fine on Linux systems but not on Windows. Its showing EOFError.
  I have to use <code>rb</code> mode to make it work on Windows.. now this isn't working on Linux.</p>
  
  <p>Why this is happening, and how to fix it?</p>
