boto/boto — Issue #437: RegionInfos from Eucalyptus are unusable

EC2's DescribeRegionsResponses contain only DNS names (e.g. ec2.us-east-1.amazonaws.com), while Eucalyptus's contain complete URIs (e.g. http://68.75.30.9:8773/services/Eucalyptus). This makes any RegionInfo objects that boto creates based on Eucalyptus's responses to DescribeRegions useless because everything assumes the "endpoint" member is a DNS name.
