Since the update to Python 3.6.3 in f906d6d18e
some of the Hypothesis tests in natsort suddenly begin to fail with
errors like this one:
res = '\x00\x00', f = <built-in function strxfrm>
> return partial(reduce, lambda res, f: f(res), functions)
E ValueError: embedded null character
The tests didn't fail with Python 3.6.2, but they did fail with Python
3.5 already.
I didn't dig through what the exact problem was, but I'd guess that the
problem could lie in Hypothesis itself. Unfortunately updating to the
latest version of Hypothesis didn't turn out to be that easy as well,
because the newer versions have a circular dependency on pytest and a
few other libraries.
So I opted against updating Hypothesis for now and just mark the tests
as "expected to fail" on purpose so that whenever we someday have a
newer version of Hypothesis, the build for natsort will fail and we can
remove this patch again.
Tested against Python 2.7, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 and all of the builds now
succeed.

Main change: glibc: 2.25-x -> 2.26-y, containing security fixes,
and various features and deprecations. Unfortunately, some of the
latter still cause (transitively) a couple hundred newly failing jobs.
I'm not delaying anymore, so that we have the security fix on master.
I mainly patched gcc, llvm and icu, but I can't fix everything...
While the version listed on PyPI is "0.4.0.final.0", the actual tarball
however is called just "meliae-0.4.0.tar.gz", which is the same *name*
(but different hash) as the one before the update in
7ce848309e.
Here is the PyPI page for reference:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/meliae/0.4.0.final.0
After checking the tarballs contents, the version string however *is*
"0.4.0.final.0", so I'm only changing the version in the download URL
rather than in the version attribute.
