I think it's beyond a hint and says we need to find a solution or else other 
people will run into similar issues.

And while I'm thinking about it, there is precedent for exposing modules under 
a different name than they are actually installed as in the system (e.g. 
os.path is posixpath), so I don't think we need to bend over backwards to mask 
every detail if the bootstrap solution is not taken (e.g. if we decided to just 
paper over _frozen_importlib we don't need to iterate over 
_frozen_importlib.__dict__ and patch up __module__). But I do think that we 
need to choose some solution to prevent this "forking" of code in the running 
interpreter.
