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.
These changes will allow sshuttle to be used with servers that have python 3.4 installed (e.g. CentOS 7, Debian 8, Ubuntu 14.04).
Ported fixes from sshuttle#55 so they are compatible with older python versions.

Closing this in favour of #81. |
