[code-quality] Lots of E1101 in standard modules after upgrading pylint to 1.4.0

[Torsten Marek]

Hm, this might be a problem with standard library detection on with
self-built Python installations.

Can you give me the output of:

>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
>>> from astroid import modutils
>>> modutils.STD_LIB_DIRS
>>> modutils.is_standard_module('time')

Thanks!
