[PATCH] Remove Python 2.4 and 2.5 support
- From: Tom Tromey <tromey at adacore dot com>

- Subject: [PATCH] Remove Python 2.4 and 2.5 support
This removes all the remainings spots I could find that work around
issues in Python 2.4 and 2.5.
I don't have a good way to test that Python 2.6 still works.
Tested by the buildbot.
