Thanks for pointing this out. I just created one here:

Unfortunately we need this for the tests to pass on python 2.4 (i.e.
Plone 3) but as you've correctly pointed out it won't work on Plone
4/python 2.5+ (where functools is part of the standard library). I've
now removed this from the setup.py[1] and updated the buildout.cfg[2] to
let people know they need it for python 2.4/Plone 3.

As an aside, I'd be really interested to hear if it works in Plone 4.

Thanks,
Tim
