epydoc: add patch for python2.6 tokenizer change

Apparently in python 2.6 the tokenizer emits different tokens for comments than before. Comment doc strings (#: foo) are not correctly parsed anymore; see this bug upstream: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=405618&aid=2585292&group_id=32455

I've create a patch there (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=405620&aid=2872545&group_id=32455), but I don't think, it's integrated soon, so it would be nice to add it to the ebuild for now.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use python2.6
2. document some code using #: style comments like:

#: foo is important, because bar.
foo = 1

3. run epydoc on that file

Actual Results:  
The doc string is ignored and epydoc emits a warning about empty lines

Expected Results:  
The doc string is applied and no warning should be emitted.

Thanks, incorporated in epydoc-3.0.1-r1.
