Hm, indeed, but I see that module 'abc' is in 'sys.modules', probably it is 
then only used by 'collections.abc'/'_collections_abc'. This means that the 
influence of 'ABCMeta' on interpreter start-up time will be smaller than I 
thought. But still start-up times for projects that actively use ABCs will be 
influenced by 'ABCMeta'.

But what do you think about making private ABC caches read-only attributes? 
(They are not documented)
