New submission from Douglas Greiman:
pkg_util.get_data('mypackage', 'resourcename')
returns None if 'mypackage' is a namespace package, because the package object
has no __file__ attribute. A shell script is attached to reproduce this.
This is either a bug to be fixed (my preference) or behavior to be documented.
If there is equivalent, working functionality in the new importlib, that would
also be a good to document.
