CPython 3.3a4 appears to find treap/ before treap.py in the CWD. If I rename treap to treap-dir, all seems well for the code in question:

dstromberg@zareason-limbo6000a /tmp/tt $ mv treap treap-dir

dstromberg@zareason-limbo6000a /tmp/tt $ /usr/local/cpython-3.3/bin/python -c 'import sys; print(sys.path); import treap; t = treap.treap()'
['', '/usr/local/cpython-3.3/lib/python33.zip', '/usr/local/cpython-3.3/lib/python3.3', '/usr/local/cpython-3.3/lib/python3.3/plat-linux', '/usr/local/cpython-3.3/lib/python3.3/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/cpython-3.3/lib/python3.3/site-packages']

dstromberg@zareason-limbo6000a /tmp/tt $ mv treap-dir/ treap
