Thanks Saket!

Andreas - this will be a fairly substantial patch adding new
functionality, so I would suggest for the Debian package of
Biopython 1.65 you simply ignore test_samtools_tool .py
(e.g. rename to something like skip_test_samtools_tool.py
- anything not matching test_*.py would work, or even
delete it?)
