This has now been completed: PEP 302 is updated, and the trunk and 2.3 
maintenance branches have been tested, patched, tested again, and checked 
in, and bug #1029475 has been closed on Sourceforge.

Unfortunately, this is only the first of two obstacles to getting PEAK lazy 
modules to work with zipimport and py2exe.  The next step is getting 
zipimport to not create a new module object when the module already exists; 
i.e., getting it to follow the updated PEP 302 guidelines for 
reload().  Once that's done, it should work correctly for PEAK lazy 
imports, but not for actual reloading, which is a whole 'nother kettle of fish.
