    Once a name has been resolved, sys.modules is checked to see if it contains
    the module desired. If so, then it is returned [use cache]. If it is not
    found, then the proper steps are taken to perform the import, but
    sys.modules is still used to return the imported module (e.g., not what a
    loader returns) [from cache on return]. This also applies to imports of
    things contained within a package and thus get assigned as an attribute
    [from cache to attribute] or pulled in thanks to a fromlist import
    [from cache for fromlist]. But if sys.modules contains None then
