Unable to get queue length for queues not in us-east-1

[derektamsen]

The munin plugin tracebacks when trying to query the queue length for message queues outside the default region of us-east-1.

$ sudo munin-run aws_sqs_queue_length_test-queue-us-west-2
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/etc/munin/plugins/aws_sqs_queue_length_sg-test-queue", line 45, in <module>
    AWSSQSQueueLengthPlugin().run()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/munin/__init__.py", line 50, in run
    values = self.execute()

  File "/etc/munin/plugins/aws_sqs_queue_length_sg-test-queue", line 41, in <genexpr>

Since the SQSConnection() method is being called the region is being set to the defaults in boto

class SQSConnection(AWSQueryConnection):
    ...
    DefaultRegionName = 'us-east-1'
    DefaultRegionEndpoint = 'sqs.us-east-1.amazonaws.com'
    ...
