Maybe something is missing on the machine hosting hudson, did you try to 
execute nosetests.exe on that machine ?
I'm also confused with something, you do not provide nosetests with the 
location of your package, assuming the current directory contains that 
package (my guess).
Instead of printing 'FOOO', try "import os ; print os.getcwd(); print 
os.listdir(os.getcwd())" to know where you are exactly and if this dir 
contains your python package.
