Yet another demonstration case: 

DemonstratePydocBug/TryThis.py: 

    import DemonstratePydocBug.Target 
    Target = DemonstratePydocBug.Target

This gives us a local Target variable, same as 'from 
DemonstratePydocBug import Target'. Pydoc barfs on this on 
the very first load. The traceback I hacked into pydoc 
claims:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "C:\Python21\Lib\pydoc.py", line 223, in safeimport
    module = __import__(path)

  File "c:\python21\lib\DemonstratePydocBug\TryThis.py", 
line 9, in ?
    Target = DemonstratePydocBug.Target

AttributeError: 'DemonstratePydocBug' module has no 
attribute 'Target'

In the interpreter, everything's fine with both techniques 
for getting Target:
