I've read the svn notes on the wc entries file format - nothing  
substantial has changed, and that regular expression should continue  
to work.
I've even tried this on some checkouts that use the new features in a  
version 9 entries file - the patch I've attached to the ticket http://bugs.python.org/issue2770 
  fixes the problem. I've been running with that setup for months now.

If desired, I'll even rework the patch so that the missing import gets  
fixed.
