Actually, I think the whole branch is about ready to be merged.  There is a 
small amount of breakage compared to the trunk:

     job     |    system
------------+--------------
  buildbot   | i686-freebsd
  coccinelle | i686-linux
  coccinelle | x86_64-linux
  dwm        | i686-cygwin
  scons      | i686-cygwin
  tahoelafs  | i686-linux
  tahoelafs  | x86_64-linux
  twisted    | i686-freebsd
  virtviewer | i686-linux
  virtviewer | x86_64-linux

This is mostly related to making Python 2.7 the default.
