Actually, we've been documenting (in INSTALL) that we require Python 2.0 for
a while. We've been preserving Python 1.5.2 support only on an unofficial
"let's do it if it's not too hard" basis. If there is significant code
cleanliness to be gained by using Python 2.0+ features, let's do that.
Python 1.x is absurdly ancient at this point.
