Interesting.  Can you repeat this with -v and report from where the
modules are loaded?

</F>

PS. For reference, here's the -v output for the above commands on a
2.6.5 stock install on Windows:

>>> import _imaging
# c:\python26\lib\encodings\cp850.pyc matches c:\python26\lib\encodings\cp850.py
import encodings.cp850 # precompiled from c:\python26\lib\encodings\cp850.pyc
import _imaging # dynamically loaded from
c:\python26\lib\site-packages\PIL\_imaging.pyd
>>> import PIL._imaging
import PIL # directory c:\python26\lib\site-packages\PIL
# c:\python26\lib\site-packages\PIL\__init__.pyc matches
c:\python26\lib\site-packages\PIL\__init__.py
import PIL # precompiled from c:\python26\lib\site-packages\PIL\__init__.pyc
import PIL._imaging # previously loaded
(c:\python26\lib\site-packages\PIL\_imaging.pyd)

Note the last line: python correctly figures out that both imports
refer to the same module.
