That all looks fine.

Don't get hung up on that bit; it's the usual way that those error messages
are worded. The first bit tells you the python type name, the second the
C++ type name. The problem here is that it seems to not recognize that it
should be able to translate the Mol into the ROMol.

ooof... insight's going to be tough... how about guesses? ;-)
The first thing that comes to mind, and I'm not sure that this has any
relevance at all, is that it could be an import order thing. Does Bill
import Chem before he imports your code?
The next possibility that I can come up with is that there was something
different in the build of your code and the RDKit on Bill's machine. Either
different compiler versions were used or different RDKit versions or
different boost versions. This somehow ends up being enough to screw up the
type recognition between the two extension modules. A check here is to be
sure that they were built using the same environment, that Python is using
the one you think it is, and that DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is set such that the
correct RDKit libs are being found.
