There is an old patch by Armin Rigo ( python.org/sf/812369 ), which
attempts to implement shutdown based on gc, rather than the explicit
clearing of modules. It would be good if that could be put to work;
I don't know what undesirable side effects doing so would cause.

Short of that, I don't think Python needs to support explicit deletion
of the encodings module from sys.modules when somebody still has a
reference to the search function. Don't do that, then.

Martin
