Not if they're using PyDateTime_IMPORT.  My understanding is that 
requiring a recompile is okay, and if you use PyDateTime_IMPORT and 
recompile against 2.7 it works fine.  As I already mentioned, the 
exception to this is pyexpat, which provides no such importer macro / 
function.

I shall await your more fully-fleshed out reply,
