Problems with six.moves.urllib

On a fresh new python 2.7 virtualenv I installed silk and I got this:

I tried pip install -U six which then installed six==1.7.2 but that didn't help :(

My bad, I had six installed into a vendor library which is included in the project and loaded first in sys.path so now I had six installed in the virtualenv and in ./vendor-local/lib/python and that one was version 1.1.
