Python 2.7.14 was released with test.bisect. While there are corner cases, do we really have to do something? The simplest fix is just to rename Lib/test/bisect.py to Lib/test/bisect_cmd.py in Python 2.7. It's a tool written for CPython developer, it's CLI is not stable nor documented. It just mean replacing "./python -m test.bisect ..." with "./python -m test.bisect_cmd ...", not a big deal. What do you think of renaming the script?
