Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:

Honestly I find it debatable whether we're doing anyone a favor by publishing 
the __file__ of the corresponding stdlib file for frozen modules. There will be 
situations where this points to the wrong file, and editing the file will not 
have an effect (unless you rebuild). I'd rather tell people to use -X 
frozen_modules=off until they can fix their dependency on the __file__ of 
frozen modules.
