[IronPython] [python] Re: The __hello__ Module

Actually, on 2nd thought, I'm not going to do __hello__ right now.  It's interesting because it's the top of the frozen module iceberg.

I think what we want to do here is revisit this when we also revisit saving compiled assemblies to disk.  Then we can call those 'frozen modules' and include the __hello__ module as a default one of those.  Just adding support for some __hello__ written in C# doesn't make much sense because it'll be wrong.

I'll still change the error message for Seo's from __future__ import braces :).

That's great news, I don't think IronPython can claim true compatibility
with CPython until these are in...  ;-)

Great work on the 1.1.1 RC by the way. Much appreciated.
