vieira 4241381d82 Backward compatibility with Python 2.4 (server) 
It is often the case that the user has no administrative control over
the server that is being used. As such it is important to support as
many versions as possible, at least on the remote server end. These
fixes will allow sshuttle to be used with servers that have only
python 2.4 or python 2.6 installed while hopefully not breaking the
compatibility with 2.7 and 3.5.

sshuttle: where transparent proxy meets VPN meets ssh
=====================================================

As far as I know, sshuttle is the only program that solves the following
common case:

- Your client machine (or router) is Linux, FreeBSD, or MacOS.

- You have access to a remote network via ssh.

- You don't necessarily have admin access on the remote network.

- The remote network has no VPN, or only stupid/complex VPN
  protocols (IPsec, PPTP, etc). Or maybe you *are* the
  admin and you just got frustrated with the awful state of
  VPN tools.

- You don't want to create an ssh port forward for every
  single host/port on the remote network.

- You hate openssh's port forwarding because it's randomly
  slow and/or stupid.

- You can't use openssh's PermitTunnel feature because
  it's disabled by default on openssh servers; plus it does
  TCP-over-TCP, which has terrible performance (see below).
