Adding getters or setters for something that was previously doable that we 
accidentally took away from users is not an expansion of semantics; it's fixing 
a backwards-compatibility break in a way that lets us keep the goal of making 
PyInterpreterState opaque.

I'm considering this issue at a stalemate and so I'm going to loop in 
python-dev to help settle this. If that still locks up then we can bring this 
to the steering council.
