Comment (by akaariai):
Looking at the provided patch in this ticket - the pkgutil documentation
says that the get_loader() will import the module if it isn't already
imported. So, I fail to see what is the difference when using pkgutil
compared to import_module.
To me it seems that as long as calling ugettext leads to importing other
apps, the importing of other apps will lead to circular imports. Is there
a way to get the module's path without doing imports?
I don't know Python's import mechanism well, so it is very much possible
that I just don't understand what is happening.
