Far from it. . . I was looking around in there when I was implementing the '-m' 
switch. I *think* I kinda sorta figured out how normal imports usually work 
(well enough to determine there was not yet a C API equivalent to 
imp.find_module, anyway). Figuring out what sys.metapath does, on the other 
hand. . .

Cheers,
Nick.
