I believe you can simply try to "import threading" (which should pull in thread
or dummy_thread, etc depending on whether the local system has Posix threads):
% python -c "import threading"
% echo $?
0
% python -c "import no_such_module"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named no_such_module
% echo $?
1
