Reported by ah001 in #pywikipediabot, and confirmed by me.

How to reproduce:

Clone a fresh copy of pywikibot-core, and add a custom family.py file in core/pywikibot/families. I've attached the one I tried with.

Now run "python pwb.py login"

Create your user-config using that wiki, and a random account. Once generate_user_files finishes, you'll get a traceback of:
