Which reminds me, does ?reloadconf just reload modified files, or force a reload of all active conf files (including open arenas and groupdef.conf). It would be good if it forced a reload so you don't have to touch groupdef.conf just for it to reload when modifying one of the files it #includes.
Edit: Just noticed exec.py isn't in there. I'm testing the windows + src distro.

Nice catch on the defaultarena line.
It reloads only modified files, which would be automatically reloaded every 15 seconds anyway. I could possibly add a flag to make it force-reload all open files, or only one specific file. Is it only groupdef.conf that you have a problem with?
Oops, exec.py is missing. Sorry about that. For now, you can get it at http://sscx.net/asss/exec.py.

If it's not simple to get it to reload all of the #included files, then can you at least make a ?touch <file>? That would solve the difficulty.

I sometimes put custom module settings in their own file and #include it, so it's not just groupdef.conf. Maybe limit it to the arena the command was executed in if reloading the conf's on all active arenas will lag the server.

Looks like python isn't set up properly. Try either setting it up or removing all of the python entries from modules.conf.

I overhauled ?reloadconf so that it can do basically everything that you all want. Specifically, "?reloadconf groupdef" will force a reload of groupdef.conf (and any other file that has "groupdef" in its name).
Regarding python init errors: Try downloading python 2.3.4 from python.org and installing it (the location doesn't matter). Python modules that use stuff from the python standard library (like the new exec.py) will need to have a real installation of python somewhere on the system. Most of them (hopefully) won't need it, though.
