New submission from Gregory P. Smith: The zipimport module checks the timestamp of a pyc file loaded from the zip file against the timestamp of a corresponding py file in the zip if any. This seems pointless. By the time someone has created a zip file for zipimport they should have guaranteed that the pyc's are fresh or not have put them into the zip file at all (wasteful).
