Sigh... so I have to concur with Thomas after all, at least for the
wheezy-sloppy backport: it turns out that I screwed up the build of the
wheezy binary and it was actually built against jessie.

Worse: pygit2 doesn't build in wheezy right now. It seems that pycparser
would need to be backported as well. I am seeing the same error as this:

https://github.com/libgit2/pygit2/issues/470

So i am about to give up on backporting pygit2 and will probably just
revert to pypi for this project.

Sorry for all the trouble.
