Patch worked fine with 2.7.  I reworked it for SVN trunk but got this failure.

FAILED (failures=1)

    self.assertEqual(d.left_list, ['file'])
AssertionError: Lists differ: ['dir-ignore', 'file', 'file.t... != ['file']

First differing element 0:
dir-ignore
file

First list contains 2 additional elements.
First extra element 1:
file

- ['dir-ignore', 'file', 'file.tmp']
+ ['file']

I've attached a py3k patch as a different pair of eyes is more likely to spot a problem.
