Summary of brief discussion on #python-dev:

- This is a hacky patch; it would be better to rewrite that portion of ast.c in 
a way that doesn't modify the original CST at all. With 2.7 so close, I daren't 
try anything more invasive than this patch, though. (I don't know whether there 
are any other portions of this file that deliberately change the CST.)

- Given that no-one noticed this problem in 5 years, the fix can probably wait 
until 2.7.1, when it can be done properly.
