New submission from Dave Peck <davep...@gmail.com>:
If you use `import` to load a package and subpackage:
import package
import package.subpackage
Then the `package` module instance will contain a `subpackage` attribute:
assert "subpackage" in dir(sys.modules['package']), "This works."
But if you use Python's `imp` module to import these packages instead, the same
assertion will fail.
Is this a python documentation oversight, or a bug with the `imp` module?
To reproduce, clone the associated hg repro and follow the instructions in the
README file. Thanks!
