I was thinking you could fix that by going over the
imported functions and stuffing the current globals
into their func_globals, but unfortunately it's
read-only. :-(

 >>> f.func_globals = g
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: readonly attribute

Is there a reason it couldn't be made writeable?
