The Python I have installed is unladen swallow, but I generally have no problem installing packages into it. Also, in case it's relevant, I'm on SUSE Linux.

It could well be the fact that you're using unladen swallow. Recent 
versions of coverage work through bytecode modification and unladen 
swallow includes some bytecode optimisations that may be a cause of 
incompatibility.
