Actually, I just realized that this is overkill.  You can just as easily do:

map(lazyModule, ['pkg1.module1', ...])

And the effect is roughly the same, except that with the LazyImporter, the 
modules won't be around in sys.modules until an import statement references 
them.

Also, you probably want sys.meta_path.insert(0, LazyImporter(...)) instead 
of append, so that the lazy importer takes precedence over other importers.
