Similar but not equal:

$ tree mytest
mytest
|-- __init__.py
`-- main.py

$ cat mytest/__init__.py 
if __name__ == '__main__':
    import sys
    print sys.argv
    import mytest.main

$ cat mytest/main.py 
print 'hi mom'

$ zip -r mytest.zip mytest
  adding: mytest/ (stored 0%)
  adding: mytest/main.py (stored 0%)
  adding: mytest/__init__.py (deflated 4%)

$ PYTHONPATH=mytest.zip python -m mytest --startserver
[None, '--startserver']
hi mom
