Great!  Thanks, you saved me the work.  I noticed your changes
to use string methods.  Should I change other uses?
I've got diffs for: ftplib, markupbase, and tabnanny.
Should I check those in?

What are the modules that should keep backwards compatability 
with 1.5.2?  It seems these are currently:

	inspect
	pydoc
	sre*
	xmlrpclib

Is this correct?  Are there others?

Neal
