mrc.read does work, though. Maybe this is not related to the myami-py3 changes.

Same error on the mrc file 08mar13e_00010gr_00004sq_v02_00005hl.mrc in module/numextension/test

This is definitely a side effect of pyami (particularly mrc.py) only being partially converted to py3. The code that parses the MRC header wants the file data to be read into python "bytes" objects instead of string objects. That was working fine when using function mrc.read() because it was already calling open() with file mode "rb". But two other calls to open() in mrc.py were still using mode "r" which defaults to "text" mode. I just fixed those "r" to "rb" in commit:043da6f6 on branch pyami-py3.
