[TxMt] Serious bug with Python syntax highlighting

[Rob Shearer]

Ticket is http://macromates.com/ticket/show?ticket_id=CFB2B0B7
The note tells you how to update the bundle.

My own trivial example (that I put together before I found that  
ticket) was to open a new file, set its language to Python, and then  
type a[0]b[]. TM will hang before you finish.
