Python handles this correctly.  If module namespace A lives in the
arch-dependent path, and module namespace B lives in the
arch-independent one, then they can both be imported just fine.

The problem I'm describing is when A.B is put in the arch-dependent one,
and A.C in the arch-independent one.  Then programs can only import A.B
or A.C, but not both, effectively rendering A useless.
