Python's really not designed for reload of this nature. You can easily
make a nasty mess of things. If you're working in the interactive
interpreter, it's probably easier to just run a stand-alone program
and restart it every time; if you're actually trying to have an
application that runs long-term and can reload code on the fly, you
may want to consider a language that explicitly supports that (such as
Pike).
