[omniORB] Weird interaction between omniORBpy and epydoc

[cp at sophos.com]

I am trying to use epydoc (epydoc.sourceforge.net) to document some 
omniORBpy code, but I get some strange errors from epydoc when I try to do 
this.

My configuration is:

- Windows XP
- Python 2.3.1
- epydoc 2.0
- omniORBpy 2.2

I have the following directory structure

epydoc-test
|
+-- EpydocTestPackage
    |
    +-- EpydocTestModule.idl

The EpydocTestModule.idl file contains:

module EpydocTestModule {
    interface EpydocTestInterface {
        wstring echo(in wstring message);
    };
};

In the epydoc-test\EpydocTestPackage directory I compile the IDL using the 
following command:

omniidl -bpython -Wbpackage=EpydocTestPackage C.. EpydocTestModule.idl

This creates the following directory structure:

epydoc-test
|
+-- EpydocTestPackage
    |
    +-- EpydocTestModule
    |   |
    |   +-- __init__.py
    |
    +-- EpydocTestModule__POA
    |   |
    |   +-- __init__.py
    |
    +-- EpydocTestModule.idl
    +-- EpydocTestModule_idl.py
    +-- __init__.py

I then try to create documentation for the EpydocTestPackage using the 
following command line from the epydoc-test directory:

   epydoc.py EpydocTestPackage
 
When I do this I get the following output:

--- begin output from epydoc ---

What am I doing wrong?
