I don't think there is anything to fix here beyond the docs for __del__.
You should never expect anything to be working in __del__, and that
includes the import machinery. It should be bare-bones, not trying to
pull in new code!

I have attached a patch which tries to clarify this fact in the language
docs for __del__.
