Ok, I've read it through. The problem is specifically with
pointers-to-pointers:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-February/060849.html

And indeed, PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords() got its "const char **"
argument changed back to "char **". But the other consts have stayed
(such as the "const char *" argument to the same
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords()).

So it looks like the patch, in essence, is legit.
(of course, in practice, it probably won't apply cleanly, since it's
very old; and perhaps it's incomplete too)
