To that end, I've added a patch to the issue tracker:

https://bugs.python.org/issue17633

My patch is issue17633-3.diff which builds upon issue17633-2.diff in that it fixes an issue with the enumerated value used by find_loader (find_loader was returning -1 which was not even a valid enumerated value).

I also expanded the test cases for zipimport to cover namespace packages spread between multiple zip archives and zip archives and real filesystems.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do.

Thanks,

Mike
