"O" is not the only special case. "S" and "N" unpack a tuple argument too. "O&" converter should return a tuple, otherwise it is an error. All other format codes are illegal for single argument.

I would just deprecate this feature (in PyObject_CallFunction, not in Py_BuildValue). The behavior of PyObject_CallFunction with a single argument can be made more consistent and useful.
