See:

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-bugs-list/2001-October/007856.html

section 2.1 of http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3548.html

Perhaps adding MIME_b64encode() and PEM_b64encode() routines?  Or just
an optional parameter to standard_b64encode, called "max_line_length",
defaulting to 0, meaning no max?
