 Let's keep it where it is right now. But I am not sure at that point that
 we care a C function call.

 It depends where you look at! The C code of the first version was
 definitely ugly! Do you have a better idea to make it work?

 ?

 It is slower. An import of an already imported library cost (as you saw
 with the move imports from #16875). Not a lot, but repeated it does!
