+# PyOpenGL (specifically, OpenGL.__init__) reads a "version" text file
+# containing the version number to export it as OpenGL.__version__. When
+# packaging with PyInstaller, the 'version' file does not exist, and importing
+# PyOpenGL results in an IOError.
+# The (convoluted) solution is to override Python's builtin "open" with our
+# own function which detects when "version" is opened and returns some fake
+# content stream (through cStringIO).
