Bobby Holley 2dbf847c0f Bug 1542376 - Avoid exception during Android bootstrap. r=glandium 
Mozboot uses Python 2.7.3, along with the |unicode_literals| directive,
which makes string literals unicode by default. However, the
LooseVersion implementation that ships with Python throws an exception
when comparing against bare unicode strings, because it only checks for
StringType, not UnicodeType [1].

mozboot - Bootstrap your system to build Mozilla projects
=========================================================

This package contains code used for bootstrapping a system to build
mozilla-central.

This code is not part of the build system per se. Instead, it is related
to everything up to invoking the actual build system.

If you have a copy of the source tree, you run:

    python bin/bootstrap.py

If you don't have a copy of the source tree, you can run:

    curl https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/raw-file/default/python/mozboot/bin/bootstrap.py | python -

The bootstrap script will download everything it needs from hg.mozilla.org
automatically!
