[issue10387] ConfigParser's getboolean method is broken

[Felix Laurie von Massenbach]

Oops, that was the broken first version. Let's try again:

class MyConfigParser(ConfigParser.RawConfigParser):
    def getboolean(self, section, option):
        result = self.get(section, option)
        try:
            trues = ["1", "yes", "true", "on"]
            falses = ["0", "no", "false", "off"]
            if result.lower() in trues:
                return True
            if result.lower() in falses:
                return False
        except AttributeError as err:
            if str(err) == "\'bool\' object has no attribute \'lower\'":
                return result
            raise err
