Come on, we're talking several kilobytes. :) Debugging .pyc-only files
is a pain, and some like to run with optimizations, so making .pyo
becomes impossible without .py (afaict).
I don't really think that's much of a burden to have .py files included,
considering that most python programs are really light on the size of
the source.
