I am now thinking we should just do a quick pytest-2.7.2.

I just fixed an error in the traceback generation which many people
have encountered and prepared a py-1.4.29 release.  I also prepared
a pytest-2.7.2 with the fixes that are currently in.  You can install
both with:

    pip install -U -i https://devpi.net/hpk/dev pytest

Tests are passing:

    https://devpi.net/hpk/dev/py/1.4.29

    https://devpi.net/hpk/dev/pytest/2.7.2
    
Anything speaking against just pushing those releases to pypi now?

FWIW I think python3.5 compat (currently 3.5.alpha2 is out) should
be tackled for pytest-2.8.
