I have a hunch that you are triggering a reload() somewhere. Example:
Python 2.6.2 (release26-maint, Apr 19 2009, 01:58:18)
[GCC 4.3.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import weakref
>>> weakref.WeakValueDictionary()
<WeakValueDictionary at 140598938447312>
>>> import UserDict
>>> reload(UserDict)
<module 'UserDict' from '/usr/lib/python2.6/UserDict.pyc'>
>>> weakref.WeakValueDictionary()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/weakref.py", line 51, in __init__
UserDict.UserDict.__init__(self, *args, **kw)
TypeError: unbound method __init__() must be called with UserDict instance
as first argument (got WeakValueDictionary instance instead)
Try restarting the interpreter after any change to source files.
