This currently prevents Twisted to run (tested with Jython 2.7 beta).

Monkey patching (in twisted/python/compat.py)

      # workaround for Jython, see: http://bugs.jython.org/issue1521
      import __builtin__
      if not hasattr(__builtin__, 'buffer'):
          def _buffer(object, offset = None, size = None):
             if offset is None:
                offset = 0
             if size is None:
                size = len(object)
             return object[offset:offset+size]
          __builtin__.buffer = _buffer

works, but is less than ideal.

Would you agree to increase the prio of this ticket, so that it gets fixed before Jython 2.7 release?
