Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de> added the comment: If the main motivation for this is that importlib can use it, I fail to see the point to make it cross-implementation. Other implementations of Python may not use byte code files at all, or use different byte code syntaxes, or not use the marshal module to load byte code. So the part of importlib that deals with cached .pyc files will be specific to CPython, anyway - why make it a cross-implementation attribute?
