A lot of unittest functions was added in 2.7, so most of the tests would fail anyway. There is unittest2 package which can be installed separately and used instead of unittest in Python 2.6 but as I was reading about it it does not seem as smooth as I hoped for. But perhaps installing unittest2 and argparse is worth trying. Few changes will be required in gunittest too, mostly imports I hope. About which platform do we talk about because now I'm starting to be concerned more about Python 3 which is appearing more and more as default. I forgot to mention this in the other thread about gunittest backport, incompatibility with 2.6 is another argument against backport.
