I've just "kill -9"-ed the stuck mass-import python process and
restarted it, requeuing the spuriously failed jobs, so that the backlog
can be worked on.

This is only going to happen again, though, unless we:

 a) find where mass-import is holding its db open infinitely

OR

 b) revert the storm integration

I feel we should revert the storm integration until it is more mature,
unless James can fix it very soon, given it's breaking UDD, and was only
added for other re-users of parts of the code.
