ImportError under Python 3

Feel free to close this if you just want to target Python 2.

I got farther with the current version than I did last time I tried, the installation now works. However, it looks like the module can't be imported.

I tried running the tests under Python 3, and after commenting out the broken print statements, I got this error:

E

I would guess that you are a victim of the Python 3 changes to module initialization.

Because the test script worked under Python 2, I assumed the problem was Python 3. I'll close this as a duplicate, then.

@donkirkby was right - this is a Python 3 migration issue that happens to produce a similar error output as #4
