[mod_python] "Cannot re-init internal module exceptions"

Greetings.

I'm attempting to get mod_python working with the AHTS template engine
(http://ahts.sourceforge.net) but am not having much luck. In
particular, I get the following error in the server error log (the
full backtrace is below):

[Thu Jun 21 09:59:33 2001] [error] PythonHandler chinlex:   File "/usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages/ahts/Plex/Errors.py", line 9, in ?
    import exceptions
[Thu Jun 21 09:59:33 2001] [error] PythonHandler chinlex: ImportError: Cannot re-init internal module exceptions

This is running in the following configuration:

Apache/1.3.19 (Unix) PHP/4.0.4pl1 mod_python/2.7.2 Python/2.0 configured

Anyone have an idea what is happening here? Any ideas on ameliorating this problem?

TIA,

    -tree
