Description
I have seen two incompatibilities:
django.utils.unittest.results imports StringIO directly (moved in python 3.x)
django.utils.unittest.loader uses cmp (built-in in python 2.x)
Django 1.5.1 on python 3.3.1

For the same reasons, this backport was removed from Django when it dropped support for Python 2.6.

Hi,
The
unittestmodule shipped by django is a backport of the newunittest2and is only there for compatibility with old python versions [1].Therefore, the code in there will only actually be used if you run a python version older than 2.7 so python3 compatibility is not needed.
Thanks.
