The allowed modules are those whose associated source file meet the normal rules for a command line script. I believe that means .py and .pyc files only (e.g. "python -m profile" works, but "python -m hotshot" does not).

Not positive, but if you're allowing .pyc, you should probably allow .pyo if optimize mode is on.
