Comment (by mfacorcoran):

 An odd thing is that the backports package seems to be missing an
 __init__.py file:

 {{{
 In [10]: cd backports
 /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7
 /site-packages/backports

 In [11]: ls -l
 total 16
 -rw-r--r--+ 1 root  wheel   155 Sep 27  2017 __init__.py.mp_1531165935
