Comment:

 Wrong specification. If PIL is there, but _imaging is not there. This is
 the case ie. on top of pypy, where pure python module can be imported, but
 C extension cannot. It raises ImportError, but newforms/fields.py#509
 catches all exceptions and raises ValidationErrors instead of reporting
 correctly that PIL is broken.
