Note: to understand this fix, see AbstractElement.__init__ -- it calls
deepcopy on parent.env, it caused copying of objects we do not want to
copy such as thread locks.

when getting an object, if at least one is found, display errors but correctly return the found object

This would make weboob-debug unusable, for example.

Using a full path would not detect vim (/usr/bin/vim).
Also, we can detect if EDITOR=vi but the vi is a symlink to vim.

They bring nothing of value (we never use import * anyway) and introduce
a maintenance burden.

The __all__ that I left might not be very useful either but at least
they are not a pain to maintain; they are also used by pyflakes in some
cases.

This makes nosetests optional at least in theory.
Recent nose versions already do the same thing internally.

Haiku doesn't have mknod().
Actually it does now, but it might take ages for python
to support it as os.mknod().
