Well, it *is* a special library. It is tightly integrated with the
interpreter core, and it provides a fundamental service in the language.

Besides, since the pyc format is an implementation detail, I don't see
how exposing r_long, w_long and friends would help third-party
libraries, which would still have to rely on non-public details.
