What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a test sp/test_x.py having a circular import
2. Execute 'nosetests sp.test_x'
3. Error message is 'module sp.test_x does not exist' but the real import error came from another module.

I recently had some problems with circular imports in my code depending on the import order. The result was that 'nosetests' by itself would run all my tests, but a particular test imported by itself triggered the circular import. Nose reported the test module did not exist, masking that the real problem was in a different module.
