Research direction

Start by reading the attached builtin_package.patch, importlib_h.patch, and test_builtin_submodule.py, then inspect the related interpreter and build areas in the current tree. Run the referenced test after understanding the proposed behavior. Done means the built-in module can be used within a package and the regression test passes.
