os.execl is the same as os.execv, but it take a variable number of
arguments instead of a single sequence.

NB: The 'zip' alias was absent in Python 3.x, until Python 3.4. This
should change be reverted if Python 3.0, 3.2, or 3.3 support is
required.
This actually addresses multiple problems:
* Single-file programs were broken, since the fix introduced in
6931cc10c4 caused builtin_find_module()
to start indicating __main__ can always be loaded locally. That's
broken, and there might be more cases where the same problem will crop
up.
Since it was indicated __main__ could be loaded locally, the built-in
import machinery was allowed to attempt that (since we remove __main__
from sys.modules during bootstrap), which caused a safety check to
fire in the bowels of Python:
"Cannot re-init internal module %.200s"
* The check for presence of the whitelist was totally broken, since the
whitelist is never an empty list. Therefore 'self' was being returned
for every module, including extension modules like 'termios'.
I have hand-verified this does not break the fix for issue #113. I
looked at writing a test for that, but it requires a Docker container
(or similar) with an ancient version of Ansible installed. Will open a
separate ticket tracking this.
The strategy is reconstructed for every playbook that is included or
specified on the command line, therefore we can't store the global
Router there without losing all our SSH connections across playbooks.
Turns out Ansible can't be trusted to actually check the result
dictionary everywhere it expects one, so put the real exception text
into -vvv output too.
Might want to de-overload the meaning of whitelist in future, but in
the meantime it works fine for Ansible and I can't think of a
whitelisting use case that would break because of it.
Closes#114.
