Research direction
The issue provides no file, test, reproduction steps, or entry point. Start by reproducing the failure involving venv when imported from a .zip, then trace the relevant standard-library implementation and add regression coverage. Done means venv behaves correctly in that zip-import scenario and the test passes.
