[pypy-issue] [issue945] import shadowing module from __init__.py as __main__ fails

Ah, maybe I found a way around these issues of modules being built-in in pypy,
shadowing user-defined modules.  How about we rename all seldom-used built-in
modules to some strange name, and put in lib_pypy a pure Python module that just
say "from __symbol import *"?

Actually we could do this for all modules that are .so extension modules in a
"normal" CPython build, for some definition of "normal".
