Where would adding a (undocumented) getfilename() method to ZipImporter objects for the benefit of the -m switch fit then? Why not call it getfilename() in 3.0 and getfilename() in 3.1?

Actually, since it should only be a fairly trivial couple of lines of code, I think I'm going to put it in the runpy._get_filename() helper function in the maintenance branches and only move it over to ZipImporter on the trunk and the py3k branch. That way it's completely unambiguous that this is just a bug fix for runpy rather than a new feature for ZipImporter.

Cheers, Nick.
