Just give it a try. :) None of this can work, as Cython determines at translation time what name refers to a built-in and what was (re-)defined somewhere. Only built-ins can be optimised to use straight API calls in the generated C code, everything else has to go through Python code. In all of the above cases, the name "set" has been redefined at the global module scope (regardless of any try-except- or if-blocks), so it is no longer associated with the built-in set type.
