[Biopython] problem parsing embl file

[Sameet Mehta]

Hi Peter,

Yes I am indeed running v 1.53

>>> import Bio
>>> print Bio.__version__
1.53
>>>

I will change that line and see if it works, probably will.  But I
have multiple such files to deal with and i dont knwo the lengths of
each of those.  Is there any other simpler way around.

Sorry to bother you this way.
