I'm quite prepared to call YAGNI on that idea and just return a 2-tuple of source filename and compiled filename. The theoretical use case was for a module that was partially compiled to native code in advance, so it's "compiled" version was a combination of a shared library and a bytecode file. It isn't really all that compelling an idea - it would be easy enough for a loader to pick one or the other and stick that in __compiled__.
