[mod_python] problem with file download in mod-python 3.0.1

I must be missing something obvious, but without testing it and just by
looking at the code, I'm not sure I understand what the benefit is of
filtering out BuiltinMethodType, as opposed to just using straight
dir(obj).

The above might be a moot point since just as Brian Hawthorne suggested
I'm not sure why we don't need the File class at all and am in the process
of trying to fish out any memories from my tired brain about how it came
about in the fist place....
