Oh, definitely. It is just that you pretty much have to use the *args
hack when providing Python versions of C functions that accept both
positional-only arguments and arbitrary keyword arguments.

For "ordinary" calls, simply switching to PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords
over other alternatives basically deals with the problem.

Cheers,
