Thanks Jason, this resolves the issue.
I actually have separate directories for the protobuf code as well as my
own. I use the '-I' option when calling protoc, which I pointed at the
directory containing 'descriptor.proto'. When I moved that path up two
directories and made the import statement relative as you suggested the
problem was resolved.
