Almost ;)

It is still failing on (older releases of) Python 3.1 due to
http://bugs.python.org/issue10353

e.g. From http://testing.open-bio.org/biopython/builders/Linux%20-%20Python%203.1/builds/611/steps/shell/logs/stdio

======================================================================
ERROR: test_root_at_midpoint (test_Phylo.TreeTests)
Tree.root_at_midpoint: reroot at the tree's midpoint.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/pjcock/repositories/BuildBot/lin31/build/build/py3.1/Tests/test_Phylo.py",
line 142, in test_root_at_midpoint
    self.assertAlmostEqual(deep_dist_0, deep_dist_1, 1)
TypeError: assertAlmostEqual() takes exactly 3 positional arguments (4 given)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Switching from a positional argument to using the places
keyword will fix it.
