Modified: python/branches/release24-maint/Lib/unittest.py Log: Patch #1388073: Make unittest.TestCase easier to subclass
I don't believe this belongs in 2.4, since it can, actually, break code. Code that depends on the current situation, _TestCase__attributename. Fragile code, to be sure, but still. If there were a compelling reason to backport, I guess it could be hacked to work right-ish, but subclassing TestCase in this way, while convenient, isn't important enough to warrant this (IMHO).
