It seems a bit odd for you to be so surprised about this, considering Python3 
is a *huge* compatibility break that broke basically every single thing ever 
written in Python.

And I'm not sure why you're making such a big deal about this one corner of 
incompatibility -- PyCObject vs. PyCapsule seems like such a trivial and easy 
to work around issue compared to the massive pain-in-the-ass porting job for 
all the incompatibilities on the Python-language side of the fence.
