Cannot Install - Python 2.6 - BGP uses 'as' as member name

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I get the following when I try to install the library under Python 2.6:

C:\proj\python\dpkt-1.6>python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 4, in <module>
    import dpkt
  File "C:\proj\python\dpkt-1.6\dpkt\__init__.py", line 17, in <module>
    import bgp
  File "C:\proj\python\dpkt-1.6\dpkt\bgp.py", line 678
    self.failUnless(c.as == 65215)

The problem seems to stem from BGP defining a field that shares the same
name as a keyword: 'as'.  Changing this to 'AS', and changing all
references to the field to the same cleared the issue, and I was able to
install.

The modified file is attached.

see r51 and r52, this has already been corrected in the subversion repository 
here.

to compile 1.6 (simpler than downloading the file or switching to svn):
cat bgp.py|sed "s/\(['.]\)as\([' ]\)/\1asn\2/" > bgp.py
