How exactly does the code reference it? If they're simply referring to
the name __builtins__ at module level, you ought to be able to import
the module, then assign some_module.__builtins__ to your thread-local
object, then call code in it as normal.

An interesting problem, and one where monkeypatching is, imho, justified.
