Hi Graham,

Thank you.

I tried with both pyenv as well as virtualenv and both times, it is the 
"encodings" module.

Thank God, it is not 'django' anymore.  I will try recompiling.  The Python 
binaries include:
/usr/bin/python2.7
/usr/bin/python2.7-config
/usr/bin/python3.4
/usr/bin/python3.4m
/usr/bin/python3.4m-x86_64-config

                   -Shanti
