It depends on what you are expecting to do with the duplicated module. If
all you need is to access the same module from two different names, you
can do this:

py> import sys
py> my_boss_is_an_idiot = sys # *grins*
py> my_boss_is_an_idiot.version
'2.3.3 (#1, May 7 2004, 10:31:40) \n[GCC 3.3.3 20040412 (Red Hat Linux
3.3.3-7)]'

But keep in mind that using this method, sys and my_boss_is_an_idiot are
merely different names for the same underlying module. Change one and you
change the other.

I'm curious... I don't expect you to comment on your boss' mental state,
but how/why do you need to duplicate the module?
