My impression is that the 2.6 ast package is quite different from the

valid as 2.6 code, which I believe is usual, then of course there is no
problem. If it is not, then I would not be sure.
If you want to target 2.3 to 3.0, 2.6 is the only option as far as I
know. I expect you will want to run your code through 2to3 (still being
improved) and run under 3.0 to properly handle 3.0 code.
Maybe someone else can give a better answer.

I guess that Python 2.6 can target Python 2.3-6, and with specific
compiler flags it can also target 3.0, so it seems that the correct
thing to do is to use that.
