Older versions of Python make PC-BASIC crash due to http://bugs.python.org/issue22113
which was solved in 2.7.12:

  • Issue #22113: struct.pack_into() now supports new buffer protocol (in particular accepts writable memoryview).

Include requirement in docs, & installer. Check on startup and fail gracefully, avoid confusing crash message.

Mark as bug as this is causing unintuitive errors, e.g. #45 and #43
