Targeting >= 2.6 would be preferable to me.  Several other packages including 
IPython, support only Python >= 2.6, >= 3.2.

This change would help me from accidentally writing Python syntax which is 
allowable in 2.6 & 2.7 (but not in 2.4 or 2.5).

Compiling a newer Python interpreter isn't very hard… probably about as 
difficult as installing NumPy.
