The attached version of this patch is suitable for backporting and 
disables external module loading, rather than attempting to fix it.  The 
tests for the internal transliteration functionality still pass.

I would like to suggest to put this in master, and include the second, 
larger patch as a clean-up after the 2.20 release.
