pandas: BUG: read_csv with date_parser lock file open on failure

Problem description

When using the date_parser functionality of read_csv() if the file read fails then the file is left locked open. My use case is that I am trying to enforce a strict datetime format that must include the time zone offset. Another thread stated that the way to accomplish this is with date_parser. My issue is that I would like to move a file that fails being loaded to another directory, but I cannot because the failure in the date_parser keeps the file open until the python session is terminated.

Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible

import pandas as pd
import datetime

def strict_parser(dates):
    datetimes = [pd.Timestamp(datetime.datetime.strptime(date, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S%z'), tz='UTC') for date in dates]
    return pd.DatetimeIndex(datetimes)

filename = 'c:/temp/data.csv'
data = pd.read_csv(filename, parse_dates=['datetime'], index_col=['datetime'], date_parser=strict_parser)

The file data.csv is:

datetime,data 2010-05-05 09:30:00-0500,10 2010-05-05 09:35:00-0500,20 2010-05-05 09:40:00,30

Output of pd.show_versions()

pandas: 0.19.1
