I'm using Python 2.6.6 on Windows 7 Professional with the latest service pack. My system is pretty bare bones. Do you have Visual Studio or the Visual Studio Redistributables?

Here's the output of your script (the last exception seems to be caused by the .pyc file, but apart from that it seems to work):


C:\Users\wkornewald\Downloads\a>test_import_symlink_package.py
Problem does not exist here.
Traceback (most recent call last):
