I've tested with and without the new importer on Windows XP SP2 +
Python 2.4.2 + Apache 2.2.0 and everything works except the
test_req_auth_type test, which signals a 500 error. This is what the
error_log contains about this test :

[Wed Mar 22 07:16:03 2006] [warn] mod_python
(pid=5140,interpreter='test_req_auth_type'): Module directory listed
in "sys.path". This may cause problems. Please check code. Code file
being imported is "C:\\projets\\mod_python\\test\\htdocs\\tests.py".
[Wed Mar 22 07:16:03 2006] [notice] mod_python

[Wed Mar 22 07:16:03 2006] [crit] [client 127.0.0.1] configuration
error:  couldn't check access.  No groups file?: /tests.py
[Wed Mar 22 07:16:03 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] No Authn
provider configured

The piece of code that emits the "No groups file?" seem to reside in
libhttpd.dll, a part of Apache 2.2, so I guess it's a problem with my
Apache setup. I'll try this on my Apache 2.0 setup on my PC at work
and let you know.
