This is a pre-emptive request to unblock some bug fixes for package python-urllib3.
unblock python-urllib3/1.9.1-3
urllib3 currently contains a patch,
05_do-not-use-embedded-ssl-match-hostname.patch, to use new SSL
features in the Debian python2.7 >= 2.7.8-7 stdlib rather than a bundled
backport library. This works (albeit, currently with an insufficiently
tight dependency on python2.7).
However, it breaks the use of virtualenv with pypy (#763389), and any
current release of cPython 2.7, without commit 221a1f9155e2 (which isn't
yet part of a stable release) (#755106). These are both filed with
severity important.
My approach to solving the problem is to use the bundled backport
library, when necessary, rather than masking it entirely.
Another (slightly cleaner) option would be to make urllib3 fall-back to
python-backports.ssl-match-hostname. This would require adding a
python-backports.ssl-match-hostname-whl binary package, for virtualenv
to include in virtualenvs. But this would obviously be more invasive.

+Description: Do not use embedded copy of ssl.match_hostname, when possible
+ The system python has the necessary features backported, since 2.7.8-7 (and
+ 221a1f9155e2, releasing in 2.7.9, upstream). However, alternative python
+ implementations don't, yet, and urllib3 is used by pip in virtualenvs.
