Code not compatible with older Python (2.4)

To run with older Python, just apply the following trivial patch:

Can you test:

class Alias(object):

and 

class Http(object):

I think there shouldn't be a problem, and new-style classes are more forward 
compatible and may be needed in serialization/deserialization.

Newer versions need to be compatible with Python 2.6 / 2.7 to be able to 
migrate to Python 3.
Older python version will not be supported, sorry.
