  Yep, my email client speaks Swedish :)

  I mean, python should ignore (and it does for me) arguments after -c  
option, however you do that in bash:

  % python global_settings.py
<module 'django.conf.global_settings' from  
'/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/django/conf/global_settings.pyc'>

  % python -c "print('$LANG')" global_settings.py
ru_RU.UTF-8

  I'm not sure you understand my code snippets correctly. I demonstrate how  
python ignores "global_settings.py" argument and doesn't run the script  
whose name was passed after `-c <python code>` option.

  I'm just pointing out that I for one can't understand what's happening  
there and why it seems to work while it shouldn't. Therefore it may break  
again unexpectedly, so just keep that in mind :)
