AttributeError: '_HookCaller' object has no attribute 'spec_opts'

I get this error with 2.8.5, but only on python2.6 it seems:

Any clues? Should I try to make a smaller repro?

[ionelmc]

Ah yes, it only happens with xdist (using 1.13.1). Could it be that I call the hook "too early"? (i'm calling it from pytest_configure)

Thanks @ionelmc!
