Doesn’t the print raise a SyntaxError not ImportError?

Yes, sorry if that was confusing -- perhaps I shouldn't have brought up ImportError. The point was that uncovering SyntaxError could possibly be as challenging as other feature tests.

    try:
        import collections
    except ImportError:
        # fallback impl of collections:
        import something_that_uses_print_statement
