If your import is used in the current namespace, just use the global
keyword.
Best is if your function just returns the module though, and then you
have bound your name to it exactly as if you had used import.
If you *really* want to poke it into the globals of whereever your
function is called from, you can use :
sys._getframe(1).globals['name'] = name
(or something like that, you will need to look up the semantics.)
This is a hack really though, just return the module object and bind
the right name to it where you call it from.
