It worked without fail before the update, but you never know:
    Python 2.7.9 (default, Dec 13 2014, 18:02:08) [GCC] on linux2
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import urllib2
    >>> print urllib2.__file__
    /usr/lib64/python2.7/urllib2.pyc

So I did not shadow I would think.
