How are all the extension modules in Mac/Modules generated? I'm

remove PyArg_Parse() from the Python 3 C API. They use PyArg_Parse

They are generated using bgen, which is in Tools/bgen/bgen. The
last time I looked at this (which is a couple of years ago) you
basicly had to be Jack to run this :-(. You also have to have the
MacOS9 SDK headers, bgen doesn't look at the system headers at the
moment.
I see PyArg_Parse... being generated from there. Maybe its just a
matter of changing it in the two or three places? Although, I am not
sure what your doing.
I was curious and also found this doc from MacPython:
file:///localhost/Developer/Examples/Python/MacPython/plugins.html
Mentions bgen and something called Modulator. Also I notice in the
bgen module README it states something about not being mac-specific.
This must not be true.
I wonder if FlatCarbon headers could be used instead of MacOS9 SDK.
I do not have any answers but I too am trying to get up to speed how
all this works.
