Comment (by aspidites):

 Wow. I thought this was more trivial then it apparently is. I'll run the
 full test suite this weekend under both python 2 and 3 and submit another
 patch.

 I might actually just start fresh and see if I can come up with a solution
 that honors python 2.5 as well (though there are at least two places that
 are python 2.5 incompatible already).
