Namespaces example not working?

The mechanism for using cimport to resolve naming conflicts as 
described in the doc no longer appears to work... This is with version 
0.9 on WindowsXP.

Reproducing that example verbatim produces code that wants to find a 
'clunch' object in the namespace and then find an attribute 
'eject_tomato' in it at runtime rather than calling the c function 
eject_tomato.

I'm trying to use this to allow me to call a C function with the same 
name as the wrapper.
