Just a general comment: spec and module mismatches have to be considered
*normal*, and the module has to take precedence. Otherwise you risk
breaking too much code.

The spec is *not* authoritative in general. The only exception is that when
__name__ ends with "__main__", pickle should be updated to look at the name
on the spec instead.

Even the attribute setting after create_module should respect custom
settings provided by the loader.

Cheers,
Nick.
