That one's easy: a testcase earlier has tried to "import threading";
*that* import died with an ImportError when threading tried to import
"thread", and then the "import threading" in
test_threadtempfileorwhatever.py gets the half finished module object that
had been constructed when "import thread" blew up for the first time.

Maybe modules should be removed from sys.modules when they fail to be
imported due to an exception?

Cheers,
M.
