Do you mean *$py.class files produced by the interp? you should be able to put
them inside
the jar and that should work, otherwise is a bug :)
If you mean precompiled by jythonc ... that's another thing.

See above. In any case importing is implemented in org.python.core.imp and the
various *PackageManager
classes ...
