However, it provides no information on how to do this. exec("import
foo") doesn't do it. exec(open(foo.__file__)) doesn't work either, but
that might just be teething problems (open returns a TextIOWrapper
object which exec doesn't identify as a file).
exec(open(foo.__file__).read(), foo.__dict__) was the best I could
come up with. That's frigging horrible, and it won't work unless
you've got access to the actual python source file of the module.
