It looks like this PR may have broken the ability to launch spot clusters:
```python
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./spark_ec2.py", line 1147, in <module>
main()
File "./spark_ec2.py", line 1139, in main
real_main()
File "./spark_ec2.py", line 988, in real_main
(master_nodes, slave_nodes) = launch_cluster(conn, opts, cluster_name)
File "./spark_ec2.py", line 437, in launch_cluster
user_data=user_data_content)
TypeError: request_spot_instances() got an unexpected keyword argument
'security_group_ids'
```
It looks like the latest version of Boto supports this argument
(http://boto.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ref/ec2.html#boto.ec2.connection.EC2Connection.request_spot_instances),
but not ours. We're using boto 2.4.1, which was released on May 16, 2012, but
this feature was only added August 2012:
https://github.com/boto/boto/commit/145a8994e516cd573854091d1a747a7e7b5a4498
I might be able to fix this by just upgrading to a newer version of Boto.
