Re: rational.py does not compile ver 2.7.21 /ChangeLog/1.4316/

The @staticmethod (there are four of them) seem to be marking static
methods. Searching around the python documentation i found that a static
method "foo" should be marked by:

        foo=staticmethod(foo)

Applying this to the four methods and deleting "@staticmethod" yields a
file that compiles. I have no idea if this is what was meant.
