When building _testcapimodule.c as a builtin module, the build fails with this error because it doesn't take into account Py_BUILD_CORE from datetime.h.

make: *** [Modules/_testcapimodule.o] Error 1

I fixed it by adding this around the datetime.h include in _testcapimodule.c but not sure if this is correct....

/* Differentiate between building the core module and building extension
 * modules.
 */
#ifdef Py_BUILD_CORE
#undef Py_BUILD_CORE
#include "datetime.h"
#define Py_BUILD_CORE
#else
#include "datetime.h"
#endif

Anyone ?

I think this was fixed by https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/5c75f37d473140f0e0b7d9bf3a8c08343447ded1

which added "#undef Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE" to _testcapimodule.c.

The C API was deeply reworked since 2013. This issue was reported in Python 2.7. I'm confident that it has been fixed in the meanwhile.
