No clues as to where you'll find the stopword code, but the Persistence
thingy is caused by the magic that ZODB performs: it initializes the
correct Persistence module when it itself is imported. This way Jim
managed to have ZODB3 and BoboPOS2 exist in the same Zope distribution.

Do an import ZODB before you do your Splitter import, and all will be
dandy.
