The sorted list for both default and -S (they're identical) is
http://pastebin.com/4vzSMCu7 - there are 55 entries there, including things
like itertools, heapq, functools and collections. With my patch, enum is
also added (which makes sense since os is in the list). So the 0.5ms
increase for the 34ms runtime kind-of makes sense.
