This patch adds a new get_data function to the pkgutil module, allowing access to data stored in the package directory. It wraps the PEP 302 loader "get_data" function, so that it works with such loaders (for example, zipimport). The patch includes documentation and tests (I created a new test_pkgutil test module, but did not add tests for the existing pkgutil functionality). All tests pass on Windows against svn rev 61679 (except test_tcl, which was skipped as I didn't build TCL support).
