[issue11154] Alternate name for __pycache__

[Barry A. Warsaw]

Barry A. Warsaw <barry at python.org> added the comment:

Hmm. That's problematic.  How would that interact with a system Python that is already looking in __pycache__ for its pyc files?  Would it suddenly start ignoring those and wanting to write them to .pycache?

IIRC we thought about something like this during the PEP discussions and Guido nixed it.
