The "time" module is going to be a builtin module, i.e. embedded in the
python20.lib (when making the executable).  You can find out which
modules are builtin by searching in a list internal to the sys module:

>>> import sys
>>> 'time' in sys.builtin_module_names
1
>>>

You can likely assume that any of the builtin modules will be
abailable in frozen programs, I believe.
