Generally speaking, yes, but not if you're concerned about Pythons
before 1.5.2 too.  If you are, a reasonable workaround is:

try:
    sdfdsafasd
except NameError:
    pass
else:
    True = None is None and 1 != 2
    False = None is not None or 1 == 2

Even so, it's rumored even that doesn't work under HP-UX in some Asian
installations.  Disabling threads may help in such cases -- although
in a few of them, using floating-point instead of strings actually
works much better.

For more information, do "man sdfdsafasd" on a Tuesday, but not in a
month containing "r".
