What import path you need to pass depends on the *module declaration*
and not the relative location of some module from a directory (this
isn't C/C++). If the module declaration is "module Math.math.matrix;"
you'll never be able to do "import math.matrix;", you will always have
to import it with "import Math.math.matrix;" regardless of any -I
switch.

And then when you know the module declaration, figuring out the import
switch is easy. It's always one directory UP of the base package.
