Comment:

 I don't see what purpose would be served by executing a Django settings
 module with `python path/to/settings.py`. Is there a use case for which
 this is a proper solution? As Tim explained, we can't cover that case on
 Python 3.4+ anyway, so I'm going to ignore it.

 For consistency between Python 3.4+ and earlier versions, I'm going to add
 the `abspath` call, even thought I'm still convinced it doesn't change
 anything, except maybe in contrived made-up examples.
