You said *should*, but I think we **must**... It seems that the legacy
PyCObject API  is ALREADy removed in Py3.2... Just svn update's py3k
trunk, and I cannot build mpi4py because of this...

I'll not make any comments about that decision. Instead, I'll spend my
time porting Cython to use the new API.
