Comment (by wenzeslaus):

 In [changeset:"70357" 70357]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="70357"
 use lazy imports for the temporal package

 This avoids ctypes-related issues during compilation (see #3257).

 Using beginning of main function if possible.
 If not adding to the if __name__... global part with a note
 about imports being at the end of the file.
 Adding pygrass imports if used (even modules import ctypes through
 __init__.py).
 }}}
