Maintaining compatibility with the 2.6.x version of asyncore presupposes that *someone* has written some software against that version of asyncore and it might break if they installed an upgrade, though.
FWIW, I use smtpd.py and a few of the asyncore APIs (.loop(), .socket_map.clear(), and .close_all()) in the Mailman 3 test suite. That only works on Python 2.6 and I don't recall even a hiccup when moving from 2.5 to 2.6.
Well, in that case, I withdraw even my disinterested suggestion :).
