 Per the discussion on tor-relays@, apparently obfsproxy has been busted on
 CentOS for over a year.  This probably should be addressed similarly to
 #11558.

 Known potential problems:
  * python-2.6.6
  * Twisted-8.2.0 (28-Dec-2008)

 Apparently it's non-trivial to install a new python with `make
 altinstall`, though I haven't tried that, and I assume even if it does
 just work (as I suspect it will), people would rather use distribution
 provided packages for all the dependencies.
