One thing to note is that (at least in math) many instances of UnpackTuple could have been replaced by ParseTuple.  See for example math_hypot: it uses UnpackTuple to get two objects, and then immediately calls PyFloat_AsDouble on them.  I've converted these using 'd' and not 'O' specifiers.

Probably better to add them to the issues that cover their modules, otherwise people might get confused.

That sounds good.

On the other hand, if clinic expanded cpp macros we could... *:-)
