Thinking about this some more, I realized that this is vunerable to code 
injection. What if the user inadvertently puts a module named 
'primitives.pure' into the cwd?

Therefore I think that PURELIB should actually be searched before the 
cwd (much like #include <foo.h> in C). Note that if the 'using' script 
is in the cwd, then the cwd will still be searched first anyway. Also, 
this will only apply to 'using' clauses, not to scripts specified on the 
command line or with 'run'.
