So that one's dealt with; it was a sys.prefix issue with me using a virtualenv and was fixed in a soon-to-be pull request a couple weeks ago. With that patch applied though, I'm now running into other doctest issues, these involving serializing Py4J objects, and again, only occurring inside doctests, not from the shell. I've been unable to distill this one down to a compact test case, nor gain any insight to the cause, and could really use a nudge in the right direction. Thanks!
