> \begin{cfuncdesc}{void}{Py_InitializeFatalHook}{PyFatalHook fp}
>   Force \cfunction{Py_FatalError()} to invoke the given function
>   instead of printing to standard error and aborting out of the
>   process.  This is intended for use in embedded applications that
>   want to define their own route for handling fatal errors.  Giving
>   the application the ability to log the error to a special
>   destination, and to do any appropriate cleanups before exiting.
> 
>   If used, this \emph{must} be called prior to
>   \cfunction{Py_Initialize()}.  Otherwise, \cfunction{Py_Initialize()}
>   will set the hook to the default, and future attempts to
>   \cfunction{Py_InitializeFatalHook()} will be ignored.
