Björn began his implementation about the same time I made my first
experiments. He even ran into the same issue with block_size. I've
compared his code with my code in ticket http://bugs.python.org/issue16113 .

Summary: My code works with Python 3.x (tested with 3.2 and 3.3) and
doesn't require additional Python subclasses. Björns code has better
unit tests as I haven't committed the test suite yet.
