New submission from Manuel Jacob:
Python 3.6.0a0 (default:6c6f7dff597b, Feb 16 2016, 01:24:51)
[GCC 5.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import importlib
>>> importlib.__import__('array', globals(), locals(), level=1)
<module '.array' from
'/home/manu/vcs/cpython/build/lib.linux-x86_64-3.6/array.cpython-36m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so'>
>>> __import__('array', globals(), locals(), level=1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package
Instead of failing, importlib.__import__ returns a module with a wrong name.
This happens with both built-in modules and pure python modules. However it
fails when replacing 'array' with 'time' (this seems to be related to whether
the module is in Modules/Setup.dist).
