Yeah, I removed as much of the Python 2 compatibility code and thought I'd got it all. Thanks for pointing it out.

I'm maintaining a "clean" (no Python 2 compatibility code) version in the standard library. I'll be maintaining mock, so I'd like to be assigned any issues on it and at least talked to before changes are made. I am maintaining a backport still, but the Python standard library version is the canonical version.

All the best,

Michael Foord
