In 2.6 the sentence possible was true and the code was correct. But it is wrong 
for currently supported versions when we pass memoryview as an argument. This 
is a bug (possible even a crash) and should be fixed. But on x86 or when we 
don't use unaligned memoryview (most peoples don't do this) it is never 
occurred. Due to this I left this bug unfixed yet. There are other minor bugs 
which I left for different issues. This patch fixes most critical bugs and 
creates a solid basis for testing.

I see unstable AIX buildbots failed on test_aifc. Perhaps this patch will fix 
it or expose an issue in audioop module (current audioop testing too poor).
