Pylint error when importing from setproctitle

[dvarrazzo]

Originally submitted by Seth.T.Rosenblum as issue 31:

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Create a python script with the line "from setproctitle import setproctitle"
2.Install pylint 1.1.0
3.run pylint against your script with rule E0611 enabled

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should pass no problem, but you see:
[E0611(no-name-in-module), ] No name 'setproctitle' in module 'setproctitle'

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.1.8 on various OSs with python 2.7.

Please provide any additional information below.
This might be a bug with the way python deals with c-defined libraries, but it seemed like something you guys could more easily figure out.

The module is perfectly introspectable: you either have your pylint pythonpath messed up or it's their bug.
