Python submodule import error (Google App Engine dev_appserver.py)

I have the following code in appengine_config.py:

...
import six
print six.__version__
print six.moves
import six.moves

The output is as follows:

1.11.0
<module 'six.moves' (built-in)>

    from six.moves import http_client
ImportError: No module named moves

How is it possible that moves is a module when accessed through six, but can't be imported on its own?

To give some context about the environment:

You've already imported six. That includes six.moves. So just use it as six.moves. To import just moves, use:

from six import moves
