We can't just go and add type annotations because we need to maintain
compatibility with older Twisted (to make it possible to package in

Any suggestions for keeping mypy happy?
Are you saying you need it to typecheck against older versions or just
run against them?
Ah, this gave me the clue I needed. We just need to run against them.
Which means I can put type hints in comments, where they will be ignored
at runtime. It's fiddly, but it will work well enough.
Thanks Glyph, and thanks to Adi and Barry for your suggestions too.
One particular problem I came across was the type annotation on
inlineCallbacks. I've filed https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/10231
about it - would appreciate thoughts.
