It's not a bug in 328 or 338 (the PEP that adds the -m
switch for packages), but in the interaction between the
two. I don't think this will be fixed for 2.5, since there
is no obvious fix. If it hurts when you press there, don't
press there. Either don't use -m for packaged modules, or
have the packaged module only use absolute imports. (But
don't be surprised if the script-module is imported twice,
once as __main__ and once as the module itself. That's a
whole other bug/feature.)
