Ahhh, thanks! ;-)

Just for the record:

import StringIO
class MyStringIO(StringIO, object):
        pass

must of course be:

class MyStringIO(StringIO.StringIO, object):
        pass

One more question - is it likely that StringIO will be turned into
new-style class in the future? The reason I ask is whether I should try
to deal with detection of new-/old-style classes or take the
old-styleness for granted and set in stone instead.
