New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>:
Here are the system calls when importing a single pure Python module:
stat("/home/antoine/py3k/py3k/Lib/copyreg", 0x7fff1ed1f740) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
open("/home/antoine/py3k/py3k/Lib/copyreg.cpython-32m.so", O_RDONLY) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/home/antoine/py3k/py3k/Lib/copyregmodule.cpython-32m.so", O_RDONLY) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/home/antoine/py3k/py3k/Lib/copyreg.abi3.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
open("/home/antoine/py3k/py3k/Lib/copyregmodule.abi3.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)
open("/home/antoine/py3k/py3k/Lib/copyreg.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
open("/home/antoine/py3k/py3k/Lib/copyregmodule.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
open("/home/antoine/py3k/py3k/Lib/copyreg.py", O_RDONLY) = 5
fstat(5, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0664, st_size=6633, ...}) = 0
open("/home/antoine/py3k/py3k/Lib/__pycache__/copyreg.cpython-32.pyc",
O_RDONLY) = 6
fstat(6, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0664, st_size=5595, ...}) = 0
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) =
0x7f28e6381000
read(6, "l\f\r\n\0\24\212Hc\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\f\0\0\0@\0\0\0s\307\0"...,
4096) = 4096
fstat(6, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0664, st_size=5595, ...}) = 0
This is per possible directory, which means that it can be repeated for each
dir on sys.path:

directory)

directory)

open("readlinemodule.abi3.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("readline.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("readlinemodule.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Something has gone out of control here. Why do we need to check so many
alternative locations?
