remote_api does not work with python 2.7.9

Question

With python 2.7.9 I got the following Traceback. Do we get a new GAE-Release, or do I have to go back with Python.

    remote_api_stub.ConfigureRemoteDatastore(None, '/????_remote', auth_func, h
ost)
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\google_appengine\google\appengine\ext\remo
te_api\remote_api_stub.py", line 874, in ConfigureRemoteApi
    app_id = GetRemoteAppIdFromServer(server, path, rtok)
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\google_appengine\google\appengine\ext\remo
te_api\remote_api_stub.py", line 569, in GetRemoteAppIdFromServer
    response = server.Send(path, payload=None, **urlargs)
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\google_appengine\google\appengine\tools\ap

It's a known bug with 2.7.9. There's workaround on the bug, if you're willing to edit a file in the SDK. Otherwise, revert to a prior version of Python until there's an official fix.
