[issue2377] Replace __import__ w/ importlib.__import__

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon <brett at python.org> added the comment:

So IDLE broke because it was relying on buggy behaviour accidentally left in Python 2.7 and carried forward (plus it was not updated to use best practices like importlib.import_module()). Roger, can you try the patch I have uploaded and see if that fixes things?
