This appears to be due to use of Python 2.5+ specific features. Changing the XS-Python-Version to >= 2.5 in debian/control fixes the installation problem.

This bug was fixed in the package python-configglue - 0.2dev-0ubuntu2

---------------
python-configglue (0.2dev-0ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low

  * debian/control:
    + XS-Python-Version changed to >= 2.5 because of absolute imports
