Jean-Paul Calderone <exar...@divmod.com> added the comment:

Perhaps the C implementation should interpret the stacklevel parameter
differently so that it is compatible with the Python implementation. 
The stacklevel value is, after all, a very important part of the
interface of warnings.warn, as it is the only way to direct the warning
at a piece of code.

If the C implementation doesn't add a frame to the stack, then maybe it
should special case stacklevel=0 (eg, pointing somewhere arbitrary, not
real, and obviously so).  It seems that it already accounts for this
fact for other stacklevel values, as it doesn't exhibit the obvious
off-by-one error one might expect.

Or, close this ticket as won't-fix, if there is no intention of ever
fixing it.
