The error occurs in python2.3 while compiling fstab.py

The line 103 is a form of <dict>.update(), that is supported only by python2.4 and later releases.

Proper syntax for python2.3 is:
line 103: self.dict.update(dict([(attr, match.group(attr)) for attr in self.attrs]))
line 105: self.dict.update(dict([(attr, None) for attr in self.attrs]))
line 110: return "".join([self.dict[attr] for attr in self.attrs])

Addendum:

I have to add to my proposal how to fix the bug:
I only verified, that fstab is compiled without syntax-error by python2.3, python2.4 and python2.6.
I did not perform any functional tests.
