In Modules/_io/_iomodule.c, the name field of the module struct is initialized to "io" rather than "_io". The change should intuitively be harmless, but perhaps there's a reason why it is like that?

Have you tried to change it and run the test suite?  Maybe it breaks pickling or something similar?

Yeah, it came to me that it may break pickle. The test suite may not
pick it, though.
