I think this is happening because sqlobject/conftest.py does 
require('SQLObject'), and apparently that's loading the installed egg 
instead of the code already on sys.path.  I'm not sure what the proper 
resolution on this is.  How can conftest.py make sure that the 
containing files are made active, and not any other installed SQLObject 
code?
