Hm, ok, that makes sense. However I have changed the name of the module 
within my app and restart web2py but I'm still getting the same error.
Now the case is: 
site-packages/mymodule/a.py
site-packages/mymodule/b.py
applications/myapp/modules/c.py

a.py imports b.py and is saying it does not have the attribute 'function'. 
I have tried explicitly naming the package.module within a.py (import 
mymodule.b.py as opposed to just import b.py) but that made no difference.
