Seems to me like a bug, but the bug could be fixed if the module's dictionary kept a (circular) reference to the module object. Who else has been waiting for a module attribute?

This is the time machine at work:

py> import encodings py> encodings.search_function.module 'encodings'

It's a string, rather than the module object, precisely to avoid cyclic references.
