Comment (by davidsarah):

 Replying to [comment:5 zooko]:
 > Okay, so a good next step would be for me to edit {{{zfec}}} to use the
 "try import and then fallback to require" approach instead of the "Python
 < 2.7" approach, and then make a new release of zfec.

 Why is that change needed? Just making a new release of zfec as-is would
 solve the problenm, no?

 (I'm generally -1 on attempting to import modules that are normally only
 runtime dependencies at build time.)
