Feasible, yes, but it doesn't make much sense to check the Python version
at Cython compile time. The C code that gets generated by Cython will run
on all Python versions from 2.3 to 3.0, and on all major platforms. You
will loose that if you start generating platform-specific C code for the
system that happens to run Cython on your code.
