numpy does the equivalent of
import core
in its __init__.py
"""
Help on method __call__ in module numpy._import_tools:
__call__(self, *packages, **options) unbound
numpy._import_tools.PackageLoader method
Load one or more packages into parent package top-level namespace.
Usage:
This function is intended to shorten the need to import many of
subpackages, say of scipy, constantly with statements such as
import scipy.linalg, scipy.fftpack, scipy.etc...
Instead, you can say:
import scipy
scipy.pkgload('linalg','fftpack',...)
