Hashlib was new in Python 2.5.  See the note at the top of:
http://docs.python.org/library/hashlib.html

You may have hashlib in your Python 2.4, but if so it's a third-party
module, not part of the standard library.  You shouldn't rely on
everyone having it, when it's so easy to fallback to the sha module.

"import foo as bar" was added in Python 2.0.  "as" became a reserved
word in Python 2.6.
