on the web page http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html,
__import__ references rexec why and how one could use __import__. On the
rexec page (http://docs.python.org/library/rexec.html) it says:
"Deprecated since version 2.6". I think one should not really refer to
deprecated functions in the current documentation.
