[New-bugs-announce] [issue45396] Custom frozen modules get ignored.

[Eric Snow]

New submission from Eric Snow <ericsnowcurrently at gmail.com>:

Recently we added the "-X frozen_modules" CLI option to control whether or not (non-essential) frozen modules get used.  Currently the default is "off", though the plan is to make the default "on".  Regardless, this is problematic for executables with custom frozen modules (where PyImport_FrozenModules is overridden).  If there are custom frozen modules then they should always be used.

Note that there are already other problems with custom frozen modules, to be addressed separately.  (See bpo-45395.)
