Bug #3361: RE: Error finding lineage info for an organism

Though I've successfully used the tool many time, the following code now generates an empty list:

handle = Entrez.efetch(db = "Taxonomy", id = tax_id, retmode = "xml")   #Query taxonomy database with taxon id
lineage_record = Entrez.read(handle)    #Read out handle
>> Problem: Record is empty

I've even run the example code from the Biopython tutorial/cookbook:
handle = Entrez.efetch(db="Taxonomy", id="158330", retmode="xml")
records = Entrez.read(handle)
>> Same problem: Record is empty

Yelp!!!!!!
