Are anyone aware of a tool that can show me at run-time
which modules (pyd/dll) are loaded into a Python program 
at a specific time (or over time)?

To clarify, e.g. when running a sample from PyQt4
(examples\tutorials\addressbook\part1.pyw) and using Process Explorer [1],
I can launch WinDbg from it and get this list of modules:
....

-------------

My example may be mooth since part1.pyw above (when I enter
the debugger) is just waiting for events. The stack of pythonw.exe 
as shown in Process Explorer:
...
ntdll.dll!ZwWaitForMultipleObjects+0xc
kernel32.dll!WaitForMultipleObjectsEx+0x12c
USER32.dll!RealMsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx+0x13e
QtCore4.dll!QEventDispatcherWin32::processEvents+0x3c3
ntdll.dll!RtlAcquirePebLock+0x28

Is there a tool that can do something similar? (written in Python maybe?). 
But a bit simpler to use than my current method. Just launch it from the 
command-line; something like "pyXX part1.pyw <more args>"
