We know about the problems you wrote -- this is PyInstallers job and we
know where he limits are.

So we would be happy to get a list od fully qualified module names for
each "import" cython finds (and as I assume generated code for).

PyInstaller too can only analyse the import-statements, which is enough
for 90% of the cases. (We do a bit more, e.g. finding libraries used via
ctypes.)

Setuptools is not an option, since this are meant to list al*
requirements of some package, while PyInstaller only includes the *used*
modules - which might be quite a difference :-)
