It is like Marius Gedminas said earlier in his response: just install 
python2.4-profiler package and it works.

The problem (again) was using 'test.py' with the system python; hotshot 
was installed but the profiler module missing.

hotshot.stats throws the ImportException and then exits; there is no 
traceback available. I think, the only way to catch this case is trying 
to import profile in testrunner itself before importing hotshot.stats.

Thanks anyway
