what's the situation for Py3k? Should it always use absolute import there?

Currently, all C code that needs to import a module uses PyImportImportModule which (1) calls builtin.import (2) attempts relative imports
Most of the time, though, at least (2) is wrong. If we want to keep (1), PyImportImportModuleLevel can't be used as a replacement. So there should be a new API, called PyImportImportAbsolute that gets a flag whether relative import should be allowed. Georg
