I understand that you have solved the problem differently, but I
actually meant you to delete the _installed_ files.... ie, to to ahead
and install as normal, but then simply remove the installed
keepalive.py and .pyc.  Urlgrabber does a check at runtime and if
keepalive isn't there, it's simply not used.
