GRUB's filesystem drivers don't support reading mtime. And no, no form of stat() function exists, f or otherwise. On a related note, without HAVE_STAT, import.c can't import package modules at all, since it uses stat to check in advance for a directory. In the spirit of Python's usual "try it and see if it works" approach, why not just try opening foo/__init__.py, and if that doesn't work try opening foo.py?
