Hmm... Can you give the result of these commands:
  gnt-cluster --version
  gnt-cluster version
  python -c 'import ganeti.constants; print ganeti.constants.RELEASE_VERSION'
  python -c 'import ganeti.rpc; print type(ganeti.rpc.ReReactor)'

(the last one should raise an exception)

Also, just to be sure, please remove all the 'pyc' files from
/var/lib/python-support, and run "update-python-modules  ganeti".

At this point, I see two possibilities:
  - either ganeti 1.2.6 is still broken with twisted 8.1, but only in
    some corner cases that I can't reproduce
  - or the Debian 1.2.3 and 1.2.6 packages don't work together nicely
    and the upgrade is broken

I'm not sure which is happening right now.
