In addition I'd say that the grokker is even eager and try to grok
anything that ends with .py, .pyo, .pyc. So if you have hidden files
(e.g.: .__foo.py) in a directory that the grokker will take place, it
will try to grok those files and raise a empt module exception.
FTR, in this particular case, the hidden files are created by a samba
share on a linux volume.
