[mod_python] PyhtonImport

PythonImport can't be used inside a Directory directive, must be
outside of it. This is because it is being evaluated at startup and
not when a request mapping to a specific directory is received.
Thus structure it as:

<VirtualHost ...>

   PythonImport ...

   <Directory ...>
   </Directory>

</virtualHost>

If that still doesn't work, put it outside of VirtualHost. Not sure if
that is required or not.
