New submission from Ronny Pfannschmidt <ronny.pfannschm...@gmail.com>:

due to the lack of a marker that denotes where the module ends and the 
attribute starts, unrelated import errors can break the try&error chain at 
unexpected places and the code can pass on to the recursive getattr chain, 
giving a completely different error instead of the real error

this is not solvable without a marker or really nasty hacks o track subsequent 
imports
