python - How to force an ImportError on development machine? (pwd module)

Question

I'm trying to use a third-party lib (docutils) on Google App Engine and have a problem with this code (in docutils):

try:
    import pwd
    do stuff
except ImportError:
    do other stuff

I want the import to fail, as it will on the actual GAE server, but the problem is that it doesn't fail on my development box (ubuntu). How to make it fail, given that the import is not in my own code?
