If it's static to stringobject.c it doesn't need a PyString_ prefix. In
fact, I'd argue that it shouldn't have one so that people reading the code
won't miss the "static" and think it is part of the published API.

Yes, in general, though you can often get away without it if you don't mind
Python screaming at you about version mismatches.
