[New-bugs-announce] [issue15314] Use importlib instead of pkgutil in runpy

[Nick Coghlan]

New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan at gmail.com>:

There's some lingering weirdness in runpy due to its reliance on pkgutil's import emulation (see #15272).

For 3.3, I'd like to explicitly switch runpy over to using importlib. This was supposed to happen automatically, but the relevant API is "importlib.find_loader" rather than the "imp.get_loader" that runpy is currently looking for.
