[issue2090] __import__ with fromlist=[''] causes double initialization of modules

[Mart Sõmermaa]

Mart Sõmermaa <mrts at mrts.pri.ee> added the comment:

Just for reference, the simplest workaround is to use:

modname = "foo.bar.baz.baq"
mod = __import__(modname, {}, {}, [modname.rsplit(".", 1)[-1]])
