If we don't have much sympathy for projects that use private API where
does that leave pythoncapi_compat?
If you look at pythoncapi_compat.h, it provides backports for
recently-introduced public APIs such as PyObject_CallOneArg().
Yes.
On older Python versions, where the public API wasn't yet available,
those backports use private API. If we change the private API in a point
release, the backport will break.
Is this a proposal for "blessing" these specific workarounds, and making
sure they don't break? That sounds nice, actually. It would mean some
additional work, though.
