In http_response in HTTPErrorProcessor, the following line

code, msg, hdrs = response.code, response.msg, response.info()

results in an error because response.code is not a valid
attribute, changing it to response.status works, but is
this the correct bug fix?

You should have edited the title and added a note here instead of
opening a new issue to clarify that the problem is in urllib2.py.
Anyway, closing this in favor of bpo-4250
