Hmm... this issue is really strange (read: might not even be related to .pyc files in the way I thought). For example Scour always works fine for me and it certainly uses modules.

Some things I noticed:
- One similarity between the two conflicting extensions is that they both try to spawn a new instance of Inkscape via "Popen", though.
- I tried to execute the command in question and at least when executed manually on the command line it doesn't fail.
- However it's obvious that at some point the spawned subprocess is locking up: If you look in task manager you'll find your original inkscape.exe (0% CPU) the spawned inkscape.com (0% CPU) and it's own inkscape.exe (100% of one core).

Question is: What is the spawned instance of Inkscape doing, and why is it locking up?
