[ZODB-Dev] fspack.py:pack() and Python2.1

[Christian Reis]

I guess not a lot of people use Python 2.1 anymore? This patch fixes a
problem with True being undefined in fspack.py. See fspack.py:pack():

    def pack(self):
    # ...
    self.locked = True
    # ...

This causes (over the ZEO):

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "./bin/clear-database", line 42, in ?
        helper.clear()
      File "/home/kiko/devel/consave/lib/database
        self.get_db().pack()
      File "/usr/local/lib/python2.1/site-package
        try: self._storage.pack(t,referencesf)
      File "/usr/local/lib/python2.1/site-package
        return self._server.pack(t, wait)
      File "/usr/local/lib/python2.1/site-package
        self.rpc.call('pack', t, wait)
      File "/usr/local/lib/python2.1/site-package
        raise inst # error raised by server
    NameError: global name 'True' is not defined

Patch attached follows idiom in the tree, but *not* in ZODB/. The
trivial fix of course would be to do self.locked = 1, but I don't care
either way.
