Um.. Okay....

for just about every module I've tried, I can do:

module = eval(dbc.__class__.__module__)

... EXCEPT for ODBC.Windows..

>>> dbc
<MS ODBC Manager Connection object at 76c3b0>
>>> dbc.__class__
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
AttributeError: __class__
>>>

what gives?
