Oh, and if you tell people to do it this way, you can "ln -s
../python-stdlib Lib" and commit that symlink into the repo. Existing
code needn't even be changed.

When you clone a repo that has submodules, you have to know to run
another command to update the submodules. Likewise when you pull
changes. Same diff as having two stand-alone repos. Splitting the
stdlib is going to make things a little harder no matter how it's
done, so it wants to be worthwhile.
