The patch looks good, except that it does not meet one of
Tim's requirements: there is no way to spell "give me memory
from the allocator that PyMalloc_New uses". _PyMalloc_Malloc
is clearly not for general use, since it starts with an
underscore.

What about calling this allocator (which could be either
PyMalloc or malloc) Py_Malloc, Py_Realloc, Py_Free?

Also, it appears that there is no function wrapper around
this allocator: A module that uses the PyMalloc allocator
will break in a configuration where pymalloc is disabled.
