[Pythonmac-SIG] Python 2.6 / appscript 0.18.1 DeprecationWarnings fix

[Florian Höch]

Hello list,

I hope this is the correct place to send patches to :)
I noticed that appscript generates some DeprecationWarnings when used 
with Python 2.6. It is easily fixed though (I've copied the fixup code 
verbatim from Python 2.6's ConfigParser.py):
