 /* BEWARE:
 
    Each interface exports both functions and macros.  Extension modules should
    use the functions, to ensure binary compatibility across Python versions.
    Because the Python implementation is free to change internal details, and
    the macros may (or may not) expose details for speed, if you do use the
    macros you must recompile your extensions with each Python release.
 
    Never mix calls to PyMem_ with calls to the platform malloc/realloc/
    calloc/free.  For example, on Windows different DLLs may end up using
    different heaps, and if you use PyMem_Malloc you'll get the memory from the
    heap used by the Python DLL; it could be a disaster if you free()'ed that
    directly in your own extension.  Using PyMem_Free instead ensures Python
    can return the memory to the proper heap.  As another example, in
    a debug build (Py_DEBUG macro), Python wraps all calls to all PyMem_ and
    PyObject_ memory functions in special debugging wrappers that add additional
    debugging info to dynamic memory blocks.  The system routines have no idea
    what to do with that stuff, and the Python wrappers have no idea what to do
    with raw blocks obtained directly by the system routines then.
 
    The GIL must be held when using these APIs.

    Functions supplying platform-independent semantics for malloc/realloc/

    may be returned), even if the platform malloc and realloc don't.
    Returned pointers must be checked for NULL explicitly.  No action is
    performed on failure (no exception is set, no warning is printed, etc).
