New submission from Chris Jerdonek <chris.jerdo...@gmail.com>:

I'm not sure if this should be fixed in the code or in the documentation, but 
the pkgutil.iter_importers() documentation says that 
pkgutil.iter_importers(name) should yield the "importers for sys.meta_path, 
sys.path, and Python’s “classic” import machinery, in that order" when name 
does not include a ".":

http://docs.python.org/dev/library/pkgutil.html#pkgutil.iter_importers

However, the function appends a "non-classic" pkgutil.ImpImporter at the end of 
all that:

>>> from pkgutil import iter_importers
>>> list(iter_importers())[-1]
<pkgutil.ImpImporter object at 0x1035fa840>
