It doesn't work in 2.6 or 3.0 because, as stated above, it was only due to a bug that it even appeared to work at all in 2.5 (it was always meant to be disallowed because it puts dodgy data in the import machinery's internal records if you do it). It took a new feature (looking for a __main__ module as described in issue 4195 and as you already noted) to make it actually work properly for 3.1 (and 2.7 when that is released).
