Hi; I noticed that running configure on my machine can now produce a
python traceback from docker.py:

make: Entering directory '/home/petmay01/linaro/qemu-for-merges/build/alldbg'
config-host.mak is out-of-date, running configure
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/petmay01/linaro/qemu-for-merges/tests/docker/docker.py",
line 29, in <module>
    from StringIO import StringIO
ImportError: No module named 'StringIO'
Install prefix    /usr/local
[etc]

I don't know if this is because of this change, but this is the
most recent change involving python...

The error also doesn't cause configure to fail, which is probably
a separate bug.

thanks
