Author: brett.cannon
Date: Sun Aug 30 21:53:48 2009
New Revision: 74596

Log:
When the globals argument to importlib.__import__() contained any value for
__package__, it was used. This was incorrect since it could be set to None to
represent the fact that a proper value was unknown. Now None will trigger the
calculation for __package__.

Discovered when running importlib against test_importhooks.

 - Raise a TypeError when the name of a module to be imported for
   importlib.__import__ is not a string (was raising an
