Hi Titus,
I have one question about your silencio commit in blast.py, which  
always blocks display of stderr output from formatdb.  This is the  
only change in the silencio branch that modifies behavior of Pygr  
itself rather than just of the test suite.  Given that formatdb is  
prone to failure, I'm not sure Pygr should suppress formatdb's error  
messages so completely as this commit would impose.  If I understood  
right, you made this change mainly to hide error messages during the  
test_formatdb_fail() test.  I propose the following compromise:

- add a new option showFormatdbMessages to BlastMapping().  By default  
this would be True. Setting it to False would activate your  
redirection code that hides the stdout / stderr output from formatdb.

- test_formatdb_fail() would invoke this option to prevent formatdb  
error messages from being displayed during the test.

What do you think?
