Limit use of imp module, prefer importlib
    
    Python 3.12 removes the imp module entirely, which causes most backend
    imports to fail. Switch to using importlib machinery to load modules,
    and retain Python 2.7 compatibility, since the importlib implementation
    should work for Pyton 3.5+.
