This could easily be fixed if we allowed run-time access
to the time machine:
from __future__ import temporal_mechanics, or_importer
import timemachine
timemachine.backport_feature("or_importer", from_version = "3.4")
...
(For obvious reasons, this will work despite the future
import of or_importer occurring before the code that
backports it.)
Manual use of the time machine would be required to
backport the timemachine module itself, after which
there would never be any backwards compatibility
problems again.
