I've done a little poking around, and it looks like you are correct and I'm wrong. It appears that readline.so is or should be a special case. I've added some people to nosy to see what they think.
Specifically, it appears that if I put a file that should shadow a library module that is imported at python startup time (eg: os.py) into my current working directory I still get the os.py from the appropriate lib directory, even though '' is first in my sys.path. This is not how I thought it worked, but it is my observation. I tested this on 2.6.6, 2.7.1 and 3.3 tip.
