Since the error occurs during "import random", at the very top, I've
not yet defined any variables at all :^)

I didn't see anything...

I'm not too concerned since I have a workaround, but the error is kind
of interesting in its own right :^)

My script is attached.

Here's how I'm embedding it:

Py_Initialize();
themodule = PyImport_ImportModule("vis");
thefunc = PyDict_GetItemString( PyModule_GetDict(themodule), "render");
