Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:

I doubt it's meant as a feature. I don't recall anything about it. I suspect 
it's got to do with limitations of the Windows installer (at the time). Maybe 
there are other things that are siblings of "Lib" that must be importable, e.g. 
DLLs?

I recommend taking this up with Steve Dower, who owns the Windows installers 
these days.
