[issue2368] Backport __builtin__ to 'builtins'

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <rhettinger at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Guido, is this something you really want to do?

To me, it just makes 2.6 more confusing to learn and it doesn't do much
in the way of simplifying the transition to 3.0.  The 2-to-3 tool can
take care of this trivially.
