Thanks, Victor, but that's not quite what I was asking. Replacing "RO"
with "READONLY" is clearly no big deal. My question was more wondering
why I didn't find myself replacing PY_RO with PY_READONLY". Both names
were part of the Public API in the early 90s, I suspect, and one of
that set of flags does have a "PY_" prefix. Why didn't these flags
(and the T_* flags in structmember.h) get swept up in all the hubbub
around the grand renaming.
