Build Identifier: 

When I build xulrunner with python-2.6, I get some Deprecation warning message.


Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
I get following deprecation warning messages:

/usr/bin/python ./prepare_tlds.py ./effective_tld_names.dat > etld_data.inc
./prepare_tlds.py:40: DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated
  import sets


/usr/bin/python ../../../../config/pythonpath.py \
	  -I../../../../xpcom/idl-parser \
	  ./qsgen.py \
	  --idlpath=../../../../dist/idl \
	  --cachedir=../../../../xpcom/idl-parser \
	  --header-output dom_quickstubs.h \
	  --stub-output dom_quickstubs.cpp \
	  --makedepend-output .deps/dom_qsgen.pp \
	   \
	  ./dom_quickstubs.qsconf
../../../../xpcom/idl-parser/../../other-licenses/ply/ply/yacc.py:74: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead
  import re, types, sys, cStringIO, md5, os.path
./qsgen.py:135: DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated
  import sets


And extensions/python/xpcom/__init__.py also have the same problem in runtime (sorry I forgot to have the error message).

Expected Results:  
No deprecation warnings.

For the warning generated by yacc.py, we can fix by updating ply which is located in other-licenses/ply to the latest one.

Please let me know.

I'm not sure the fix for mozilla-central/extensions/python/xpcom/__init__.py.
