import traceback results in 
ImportError: no os specific module found
when embedded interpreter is run from java.

Looks like this is because when interpreter is run from inside java, sys.builtin_module_names  does not include 'posix' nor any of the OS names that os.py is looking for in that if else if statement at the beginning of os.py.

When interpreter is run from command line, 'posix' is included in sys.builtin_module_names.

actual stack trace looks like:
