TypeError: import_hook() takes at most 4 arguments (5 given)

So I don't know what is going on, unless a "self" is being passed along the way. (which seems like it could happen when looking at __import__ in the source)

Can any of you identify my problem or let me know of a fixed import hook?

Thank you,
