Just random passing code commentary:

   def __init__(self, structure, hasblob = False):
      self.format = ''
      self.fields = []

      for format, field in structure:
         self.format += format
         self.fields.append(field)
         vars(self)[field] = None


That avoids the triple iteration. The vars(self) call is unnecessary,
I just think it looks cleaner. :)
