I would also be on the lookout for stale .pyc / .pyo files: I saw a similar failure recently while testing third-party code, and suspected both causes: cleaning out the .pyc files and carefully removing aliased imports eventually got the problem to go away (at which point I could no longer reproduce it at all).
