My mistake, the try block should have just covered the import of partial - that is after all the exceptional circumstance we can deal with by using the pure python implementation.
Possibly reduce could be handled in a similar way with a fallback python implementation? Otherwise your suggestion of conditionally adding it to __all__ makes sense to me.

What are the main considerations to properly answer these last questions? Performance comparison between the implementations, maintainability? |
