[issue31676] Strange failure in test_cgitb

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at gmail.com> added the comment:

The problem is that imp.load_source() modifies __file__ of the __main__ module.

Example of a file x.py:
---
import imp
import sys
print(sys.modules[__name__])
try:
    imp.load_source(__name__, __file__ + "\0")
except:
    pass
print(sys.modules[__name__])
---

Output:
---
<module '__main__' from 'x.py'>
<module '__main__' from 'x.py\x00'>
---
