Also using os.fsync will bypass any data that's still buffered and not
sent out to the underlying API. You probably want a self.file.flush()
in there.

I'm also surprised this works at all. os.fsync should be expecting an
int, so you'd have to use self.file.fileno(). Perhaps there's some
magic that takes care of it somewhere (e.g. a __int__ override or
something)
