I think it works now (fm3.diff, attached. Please apply against HEAD,
not fm2.diff).

FakeModule now "forwards" all getattr calls to the dictionary it was
instantiated with:

     def __getattr__(self,key):
-        try:
-            return self.__dict__[key]
-        except KeyError, e:
-            raise AttributeError("FakeModule object has no attribute %s" % e)
-
+       try:
+           return self.__origdict[key]
+       except KeyError, e:
+           raise AttributeError("FakeModule object has no attribute %s" % e)
+

If everything goes w/o a hitch tomorrow I think I'll push this to
trunk for the unwary users :-).
