This seems like a good idea.

I'm not sure this idea will easily be accepted, but I'd like to see
the sys module eventually split up in two parts, so it is very obvious
to both implementers and users which system-specific features are
portable and which are not:

a) implementation details of the C implementation (subversion, _*,
dllhandle, dont_write_bytecode, settscdump, ..) in one module,

b) portable functionality (interpreter name and version etc,
builtin_module_names, copyright, excepthook, settrace, ..) in the
other
