... aaaaand as is usual for me, I dug deeper and realized that there were
some packages installed in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages. So I ran
"easy_install pip", then ran "sudo pip uninstall ansible" until it gave me
an error that nothing was left to uninstall (took about 9 runs to get all
the various .egg files removed), then did an "rm -rf ansible" in that
site-packages directory to remove ansible's files from there as well. That
cleared the problem right up - which means I was pulling at least some of
the files from another release (at least __init.py__) - so this would not
have been a good thing.
Someone clarify if I did this the wrong way, but it appears to be working
for now...
