Yes it is enough to encapsulate memory allocation and file functions into
python shared library. The python provide memory allocation functions, but
not all modules use them. File functions are hiden by posixmodule and python
modules can't use them.

decoupling posixmodule.c from pythonNN.dll leaves the possibility to

it would need to be a custom-compiled .pyd module, due to the early

That doesn't really matter, I guess. An extension module build by your

It only becomes a problem when someone wants to both support Windows
users of their extension modules with pre-built binaries, but *also*
doesn't want to set up the appropriate environment for building such
binaries (currently a minimum bar of Visual Studio Express on a Windows
