[Don Caldwell]

New submission from Don Caldwell <dfwcnj at gmail.com>:

in iter_modules there is a loop for fn in os.listdir(path): that can
fail on an OSError exception. here is a patch

                try:
                    for fn in os.listdir(path):
                        subname = inspect.getmodulename(fn)
                        if subname=='__init__':
                            ispkg = True
                            break
                    else:
                        continue    # not a package
                except OSError as (errno, strerror):
                    print "%s: %s\n" % (fn, strerror)
