Ok, I'll answer my own question here. ;)

The problem was that the fsimage.so file was installed in
/usr/lib64/python and pygrub didn't include that directory in
the path.

$ grep path /usr/bin/pygrub
sys.path = [ '/usr/lib/python' ] + sys.path

I changed the pygrub script so that it includes
/usr/lib64/python and now pygrub works.

On CentOS there is no such directory /usr/lib/python.
