No. The from foo import * will create local bindings of the
module-globals in the importing module, and there is no implicit link to
the module's names.
This is the main reason why the "from foo import *"-form is frowned
upon, and you should refrain from using it.
Use e.g.
import support as s
instead, to get a shorter name for referencing the support module.
