[New-bugs-announce] [issue24320] Remove a now-unnecessary workaround from importlib._bootstrap.

[Eric Snow]

New submission from Eric Snow:

In issue #23911 I worked around a bug [1] in pkg_resources (setuptools) which caused test_venv to fail when I split out importlib._bootstrap_external.  That bug has now been fixed so we just(?) need to update the version of pip we're bundling and remove the hack I put in as a workaround (see msg242440).
