When running the unittest runner in parallel with an module import error present in your code, this exception is raised:

_pickle.PicklingError: Can't pickle <class 'unittest.loader.ModuleImportFailure'>: attribute lookup ModuleImportFailure on unittest.loader failed

unittest should be raising standard exceptions instead.

This was fixed in Python 3.4 with this patch: https://bugs.python.org/issue22903

Given that 2.7 is still supported, this patch should be backported.
