Hi David, I'm just reviewing Boost.Python PRs, and looking at https://github.com/boostorg/python/pull/55 I was reminded of this little exchange. Sorry for having dropped the ball here...

Why not simply create "bar" via BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(bar) ? For example: BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(bar) { object barPackage = scope(); object barFooPackage = import("foo"); barPackage.attr( "foo" ) = barFooPackage; } should have the effect you are seeking, if I understand correctly. There is no need to invoke "addFooAssets()" twice.
