P.S.: I wish we could drop use of the 'module.so' variant at the same time, for consistency sake and to cut out a stat call, but I know that is asking too much.
At least, looking for spam/__init__module.so could be avoided. It seems to me that the package definition does not allow that.
I thought no one had bothered to change import.c to allow for extension modules to act as a package's __init__? As for not being allowed, I don't agree with that assessment. If you treat a package's __init__ module as simply that, a module that would be named __init__ when imported, then __init__module.c would be valid (and that's what importlib does).
The tradeoff would be code complication for one less stat call. Worth a bug report?
Nah.
