since you have to load xsample as a library, including a xsample object 
can't have any effect - i guess your findings that it has some effect is 
pure coincidence. It's also ok if it can't be created since xsample is 
not a defined object, it's just the library name.
Maybe things have worked different for you before, because you were 
using an older xsample version?

yes, although i haven't tried either, this should work ok... just drop 
python.dll in the same folder as the external, or into pd/bin .

best greetings,
