Hmm, yeah, this happened to me before.  I tried various kludges and
then spend a lot of time for 0.11.1 (I think) removing almost all
cases of "import XXX from YYY" in rdiff-backup.  So try changing it to
"import log", and changing all instances in Main.py of
Log.FatalError() to log.Log.FatalError(), etc, and see if that helps.

I think the basic problem is that Python handles circular module
dependencies in inconsistent ways.  I think there is also an entry in
the Python FAQ about this.
