Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

It explains why the function isn't implemented in Python, it doesn't say that 
there shouldn't be a best-effort Python fallback.

All in all, Christian's version looks reasonable. All arithmetic is done on 
small ints, so there shouldn't be a strong data-dependent timing issue.
