In importlib._bootstrap:
We have some global like "_CHECK_STAT=True". FileFinder would use it to decide on using stat checks or not.
In Python/pythonrun.c:
At the end of import_init(), we set importlib._bootstrap _CHECK_STAT to False. Then at the end of _Py_InitializeEx_Private() we set it back to True.
(As an alternative, we could always not do stat checking for just the standard library)

About the fuzziness of when startup is finished? As implied above, I'd say at the end of Py_Initialize().
