[issue3857] ImportError: No module named test.test_support

[Winfried Plappert]

OK, by now I know exactly what the problem is: The Windows installer
allows you the option of DESELECTING the "Test Suite". Initially I
deselected the Test Suite because I thought I do not need it. But this
is wrong. urllib loads test.test_support. 

In my opinion you must not be able to deselect a feature if this feature
is needed for the proper running of Python.

PS.: Forget all the bits about "Python 2.6b3 (r26b3:66303, Sep  8 2008,
13:45:13) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32": I just was too fast. I
have verified the bug now with proper 2.6rc1: Python 2.6rc1
(r26rc1:66438, Sep 13 2008, 09:20:38) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)].

Thanks a lot for the wonderful programming language Python!!
