To increase the common subset of code which can run on both 2.6 and 3.0 
*without* invoking 2to3?

PEP-8'ifying these names also makes them easier for at least me to 
remember (since I don't have to worry about whether or not the module 
name includes unexpected underscores or strange capitalisation)

Cheers,
Nick.
