Steve Dower added the comment:

It's core Python, but it's specifically intended for producing redistributable 
installers containing Python packages. This is not something that the embedded 
distro is meant for, and it neatens things up to omit them.

There is very little information because it's considered an internal 
implementation detail (otherwise it would be thoroughly documented). That said, 
because of the narrower use case for the embedded distro, omitting even 
thoroughly documented modules would be okay if it didn't make sense in this 
context (e.g. the turtledemo module is documented, but also not in the embedded 
distro).
