Here's what I'd try:

>>> import sys
>>> sys.modules[d1.__class__.__module__].__file__
>>> sys.modules[d2.__class__.__module__].__file__

Do those in both environments and see where things are actually coming
from. (In PyDev, I expect that to tell you exactly the same file names
as your question-mark inspection tells you, as that'll be how it
obtains the information.) It might be that your module search path is
different.
