[issue34250] import xmlrpclib not works in file named "xml.py"

This is expected, because there is a package named 'xml' in the Python standard library. See http://python-notes.curiousefficiency.org/en/latest/python_concepts/import_traps.html#the-name-shadowing-trap and http://python-notes.curiousefficiency.org/en/latest/python_concepts/import_traps.html#the-stale-bytecode-file-trap for details.
