I'm trying to write 2/3 compatible code using six, but I don't see how I can call super() in a cross-compatible manner. Is there some better way besides, for example:

class MyClass(MyBase):
    def __init__():
        if six.PY3:
            super().__init__()
        else:
            super(MyClass, self).__init__()
        ...

Using super() with arguments is backwards compatible, so you should just be able to use super(MyClass, self) without needing to check the version.
