Comment(by simonmar):
Yes, the package name and version are omitted when this is the main
pacakge (the default). It is possible that different packages use the
same module name, so it's not possible to use the `__stginit_Foo` form
when the modules are being built as part of a package.
We'll put some thought into how to do the initialisation automatically.
