The only real problem here is that if django.rework.evolve imports
something else which doesn't exist you get your fallback code instead of
reporting the error. In other words there is a chance that you could mask a
deeper problem.
If this worries you then you could do:
try:
from django.rework.evolve import evolvedb
except ImportError, e:
if str(e).rsplit(' ')[-1] != 'django.rework.evolve':
raise
... rest of code here ...
