Hey Steven,
Sorry for the late reply (travelling). My comment wasn't clear, I was ranti=
ng against
the import of the exception in the second module, non the less how it was i=
mported
and not why it was not ok.

Basically, it was no better than leaving it where it was, spelled as it was=
 and
requiring the user to import it from where it was defined. It turned out to=
 be
some faulty logic in the second module where the __setattr__ call was made
that was preventing it from being set...
