ok looking at that code, I'm not sure I understand how it addresses the 
PyObject_HEAD thing, unless there's something I'm not seeing

I'll ask directly - how would an extension library define a type, and how would 
it access its own data at the end of objects of that type?



I'm also skeptical that a static library would provide any savings vs treating 
the functions like every other function in the api... a precompiled header 
might, but while I don't fully understand how precompiled headers are used, I 
don't *think* it would allow extension libraries to ship as a dll/so file as 
they currently can.
