If in fact the use of args and argdict are mutually exclusive and
argdict is only around for passing on from __init__ then it would seem
that you could also just re-assign args, e.g.,:

    if argdict:
	args = argdict

(although I think the apply() approach is probaby cleaner since it
avoids the use of the extra argument to read()).
