[import package.mod vs from package import mod]

OK, just tested imputil on a .pyz built with a package= option. No 
problem using "from package import mod".

Just poked around with modulefinder - no problem there.

AHA! It's the way the zlib gets built. When you specify a package, 
the TOC has an entry for "package.__init__" and "package.mod", as it 
should. But when it's built from chasing dependencies, it has an 
entry for "package" and "package.mod", so imputil thinks "package" is 
a module...
