Move it, I just wonder if there is a better place for it than sys.  Putting
intern() in sys makes sense since it is a specific thing to the
interpreter.  id could go there or maybe inspect.

But compile (along wth exec, but I don't think you wanted to move that) are
just plain different.  Dynamic code execution is its own thing that I do not
directly associate with the specifics of the interpreter.  Maybe a module
named 'dynamic' or 'execution'?
