+PACKAGE RELATED BUGS
+- If you have a package and a module inside that or another package
+ with the same name, module caching doesn't work properly since the
+ key is the base name of the module/package.
+- The only entry that is returned when you readmodule a package is a
+ __path__ whose value is a list which confuses certain class browsers.
+- When code does:
+ from package import subpackage
+ class MyClass(subpackage.SuperClass):
+ ...
+ It can't locate the parent. It probably needs to have the same
+ hairy logic that the import locator already does. (This logic
+ exists coded in Python in the freeze package.)
