A user complains that under AppEngine I'm not allowed to import __main__.
I can fix this issue merely by putting a try block around the offending
import which is only used like this
import __main__
testing = getattr(__main__,'_rl_testing',False)
del __main__
this is only used as a hack way, during testing, to modify the behaviour
of the importing module (a proxy for a C extension). During testing we
keep both the C version and the supposed replacement of various
functions so they can be tested against each other

Is there a more reasonable way to allow changes to module level globals
before the import takes place? I guess since this module is supposed
only to be imported by reportlab we can put this sort of thing onto the
reportlab module itself, but that could possibly lead to import loops.
Any ideas?
In coverage.py, I used environment variables to control that kind of
behavior.
