So the underlying problem looks like we're somehow picking up a different linecache.py or that linecache's getlines method is being patched.   If you're sure neither of those are happening then my only guess would be that we could have a call site caching bug but against a function that seems fairly unlikely.

I have a sneaking suspicion that this error happens if you use the 
Python 2.4 version of linecache. Is the Python 2.4 standard library (or 
bits of it!?!?) somehow on your IRONPYTHONPATH or included in your 
application?
