PEP 302 + zipimport:
- new import hooks in import.c, exposed in the sys module - new module called 'zipimport' - various changes to allow bootstrapping from zip files I hope I didn't break the Windows build (or anything else for that matter), but then again, it's been sitting on sf long enough... Regarding the latest discussions on python-dev: zipimport sets pkg.__path__ as specified in PEP 273, and likewise, sys.path item such as /path/to/Archive.zip/subdir/ are supported again.
