Test_imports fails for selected cases, when run under Python 2.6.
E.g. from_import_usage fails for rewriting __builtin__ print, and also
for __builtin__ zip.

I have fixed this in r65017 and am currently merging it into the trunk
and py3k. Martin, do you still want to keep the lib2to3 resource around?

Last I tried, running test_import still took a very long time
(bpo-2968). If that was fixed, the resource would not be needed
anymore. OTOH, if it's only me complaining about this issue, it's
ok to remove the resource even without fixing the issue first.

I understand that bpo-3218 helps test_import a lot, so once that patch is
when I'll remove the resource.
