New submission from lekma <lekma...@gmail.com>:

Overriding warnings.showwarning() with a c/python module function (from a 
c/python module) doesn't work because warn_explicit() only allow PyFunction or 
PyMethod objects to be called (unfortunately c/python module functions are of 
type PyCFunction).

Suggested changes in _warnings.c (from py3k) - not tested at all:

from:
412            if (!PyMethod_Check(show_fxn) && !PyFunction_Check(show_fxn)) {
413                PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError,
414                                "warnings.showwarning() must be set to a "
415                                "function or method");

to:
412            if (!PyCallable_Check(show_fxn)) {
413                PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError,
414                                "warnings.showwarning() must be set to a "
415                                "callable");
