Module names beginning w/ a digit

[Jeremy Yallop]

| Why can't Python module names start a digit?

Module names are usually subject to the same rules as other
identifiers.  When you import a module in the "normal" way, its name
is bound in the current global dictionary.

|>>> import 9P
|   File "<stdin>", line 1
|     import 9P
|            ^
| SyntaxError: invalid syntax

>>> nineP = __import__('9P')

will work but it's better to use a different name if you can.
