[issue3475] _elementtree.c import can fail silently

[Fredrik Lundh]

Fredrik Lundh <fredrik at effbot.org> added the comment:

Note that "fail silently" is a bit of a misnomer - if the embedded import 
doesn't work, portions of the library will fail pretty loudly.  Feel free 
to use some variation of the suggested patch, or just wait until the next 
upstream release gets imported (if ever).
