ppperry added the comment:
Another example of this overzealous removing is when you create a module named
rpc, run, RemoteDebugger, or bdb.
For example (in this environment, a file in the current directory named rpc.py
exists and refers to the undefined name "bar"):
>>>import rpc
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#x>", line 1, in <module>
import rpc
NameError: name 'bar' is not defined
The correct traceback is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#x>", line 1, in <module>
File "rpc.py", line 2, in <module>
bar
NameError: name 'bar' is not defined
The IDLE debugger also refuses to debug code in the above file (only if it is
named "rpc" not any of the other names).
