Yes, but the problem with that solution is, let's say that I further
abstract the whole thing and I add a directory outside of my toplevel_dir,
which has the syntax:

from toplevel_dir.wrapper_dir import some_wrapper

some_wrapper.use_external_utility()


Now, once again, the module is broken.  This is what I was trying to
avoid.  At any rate, Paul's solution was exactly what I was looking for.
