[BangPypers] magic in datetime module?

[Anand Chitipothu]

Let me re-write the code to remove the confusion between command-line
and interpreter modes.

import datetime
now = datetime.datetime.utcnow()
__builtins__ = {}
print now.strftime("%m %Y")

Why should this fail?

I did some hack to see who is calling import.

import datetime
now = datetime.datetime.utcnow()

def ximport(*a, **kw):
    print a, kw
    raise Exception

__builtins__ = {'__import__': ximport}
f = now.strftime
print f("%m %Y")

It fails when f is called.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "x.py", line 11, in <module>
    print f("%m %Y")
  File "x.py", line 7, in ximport
    raise Exception
Exception

Any clues?
