Don't use Dict comprehensions and therefore support Python 2.6 #3

Just got this error on the latest build:

File "extract_valid_evtx_records_and_templates.py", line 35
    _replacement_patterns = {i: re.compile("\[(Normal|Conditional) Substitution\(index=%d, type=\d+\)\]" % i) for i in
                                                                                                                ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Maybe i've done something weird?

$ find FILES/ -type f -exec python extract_valid_evtx_records_and_templates.py '{}' testp test \;

Are you using Python 2.6 by any chance?

That statement is a dict comprehension, which I believe were added in 2.7. Either way, this warrants a fix.

oh nm, i figured it out :-) sorry

I don't think we'll support py2.6 for EVTXtract. Just py27 onwards (py3 works, now!).
