I don't think we should change anything in 2.7 at this point. It risks breaking compatibility while we are at the end of the 2.x line, for little added benefit (the old buffer API has always been insecure with mutable buffers).

As for 3.2, PyObject_AsCharBuffer() should IMO be deprecated, as well as any other functions meant to query the old buffer API.
