Well, Rich Bowen had started working on the same module, so you should
talk to him.  Reviewing the code/docs, I have a couple nits:

- The constructor shouldn't take rd_secs, rd_nanosecs, or locale, I don't
  think.  The only way to set this should be via the from_object method.

- I'm assuming that the "holyday" spelling is intentional, right?

- days_till_x should be days_until_x.  I'm not a big fan of abbreviations
  in general, unless they're ridiculously obvious, and "till" is the wrong
  abbreviation anyway ;)

- You have %% documented twice.

- Using ü in the exclamations probably isn't right.  This is part of
  Latin-1, so use that character.
