I use them too. One of the problems with the standard documented C api is that tracebacks do not include any methods implemented in C. For example if a Python method calls a C method which calls a Python method which errors then the traceback won't include the C code. This is very confusing if you don't know why the C code called a Python method. I show this in the doc for my project: http://apidoc.apsw.googlecode.com/hg/exceptions.html#augmented-stack-traces As the doc shows I end up adding in synthetic stack frames so you can clearly see the C code. I also augment the synthetic frames with local variables that can be introspected to find out what is going on. The very bottom of the page shows what a difference that makes. You can see the C code to do it here: http://code.google.com/p/apsw/source/browse/src/traceback.c Note use of functions like PyThreadState_Get() and PyTraceback_here. As long as the signature of AddTraceBackHere can remain the same then I don't care what the body inside is for pypy.
