Seems to me it would be better to rename the module
to a non-double-underscore name. There's really nothing
magical about the module itself, only the name used
by global variable lookups. So just call the module
'builtins', and then you can do
import builtins # get the module with no magic happening
import mystuff as __builtins__ # change my builtin namespace
import builtins as __builtins__ # restore default builtin namespace
