Comment (by monoidal):

 Python 2.4 doesn't support "with", even with the `__future__` import. The
 `__future__` statement is needed in Python 2.5 and already present in the
 script.

 I highly recommend updating Python, version 2.4 has over five years and
 possibly has security issues. It should be possible to get rid of "with"
 and replace it with call to acquire/release but there're probably other
 obstacles to running the script.
