You propose to replace
8 CALL_FUNCTION 1
10 POP_TOP
12 LOAD_CONST 2 (None)
14 RETURN_VALUE
with:
12 CALL_FUNCTION 1
15 RETURN_VALUE
It changes the semantics of Python. Technically, you *can* override the print() builtin function:
vstinner@apu$ ./python
Python 3.8.0a2+ (heads/master:dc078947a5, Mar 7 2019, 12:23:23)
>>> import builtins
>>> def mock(*args, **kw): return 3
...
>>> builtins.print=mock
>>> print("hello")
3
>>> import __phello__
>>> # doesn't print anything
...
It would be possible if you ensure that print() isn't replaced.
Longer explanation:

To use more efficient bytecode without modying the Python semantics, you need to deoptimize if print() is replaced. I implemented that in my old FAT Python project :-)

I would be more interested by a tool to update/regenerate M___hello__ in Python/frozen.c. |
