To expand a little, you use the terminology "possible bugs". All I can see is a double exception if PyUnicode_Compare() returns -1. I think I did it on purpose because this function is speed sensitive and no user will change a valid rounding mode constant to a string that is not ready. So getting a double exception after deliberately sabotaging the module seems pretty benign to me. :) Consider the decimal part rejected.

no user will change a valid rounding mode *constant* to a string that
is not ready.
