So, that's a pretty awful user interface. (The file is named ‘fooprog’
because it's an executable, intended to be run directly at the command
line.) That solution would be rather inferior to the program being able
to import modules when invoked as the top-level program.

Can you suggest solutions that allow invoking the program as ‘./fooprog’
to work?
