My guess is that the idea was to be able to load the .pyd files we used to put 
alongside it, though we found out they weren't being loaded anyway.

One potential side effect is that manually created .pth files may no longer 
have an effect, as those likely chain together just fine. But I don't think 
that's a likely scenario.
