[issue2446] 2to3 translates "import foobar" to "import .foobar" rather than "from . import foobar"

Can you write a test case proving this?

At the moment, the second thing that the transform function in  
fix_import.py does is return if the import doesn't look like a local  
import (see probably_a_local_import in fix_import).

At the moment, all (with an exception or two) of the import test  
cases test both cases -- the local import exists and the local import  
does not exist -- automatically.
