import pkg_resources change path of already imported module
this break google appengine because It use "google.__file__" to determine sdk directory.

pkg_resources is not from Python but setuptools; you probably installed it and forgot it was there. I would suggest you do your App Engine development using virtualenv to make sure that you are working in a clean environment.
