You don't *have* do anything for free. However, if your package works on 
2.7 and 3.4, it *probably* works as is for 3.2 and 3.3. On Windows at 
least, installing multiple versions is trivial (5 minutes for each).

The more important issue, I think, is what system you have tested on. Up 
to 3.2, including all 2.x, Python had 'wide' and 'narrow' unicode 
builds. On narrow builds (Windows, some *nix), astral (non-BMP) chars 
count as 2. Given Twitter's 140 char limitation, this bug (solved in 
3.3) could affect a Twitter client by giving the length of a 140 char 
tweet as more than 140 chars.

Even if you test on, say, 2.6, it is up to you whether you want to 
'support' 2.6 with bugfixes, in case a patch for 2.7 does not work on 2.6.
