While writing tests xml.etree, I hit a strange behaviour of import_fresh_module.
How to reproduce:
- dummy/__init__.py
- dummy/foo.py
- dummy/bar.py
- test_fresh_import.py
# 'dummy/foo.py'
from dummy.bar import func
# 'dummy/bar.py'
fortytwo = 42
def func():
 assert fortytwo == 42
# 'test_fresh_import.py'
(see attachment)
# Output:
~ $ ./python.exe test_fresh_import.py 
OK dummy.foo
OK dummy.bar
OK dummy.bar
OK dummy.foo
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "test_fresh_import.py", line 24, in <module>
 test_fresh(m)
 File "test_fresh_import.py", line 5, in test_fresh
 rv = module.func()
 File "./dummy/bar.py", line 6, in func
