You can "touch" one of the .py files. That is, cause its last modified date to become newer than that of its .pyc file by making it the current time.
I suspect that you can do this (assuming that you don't want to run the *nix "touch" command as a sub process, or don't have it because you are on an OS that doesn't have it) by opening the file for writing, not writing to it, and closing it again. But note that I haven't tested this on any platform, let alone yours. The development server is actually two processes: the one you start with manage, and the one actually running Django, which is started by the first "driver" process. The driver process then spends its time watching for files to change, and when it sees one do so, it restarts the server process. However you can manage to implement touch on your platform. Note that this is specific to the development server. But note that mod_wsgi has a similar watch upon just the .wsgi file (which doesn't have to be named with .wsgi, it's just the one that the WSGIScripAlias points to).
