"You can pass the exception table the same way you pass all the other arguments. The exception table depends on the code, but that is nothing new. The bytecode library already recomputes the consts, names, etc."

Constants and names are easy to build, it's just an array and the bytecode refers to their index.

Building the exception table is more complicated. It's nice that the format is documented in https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Objects/exception_handling_notes.txt but it would be more convenient to put it in the regular Python documentation (docs.python.org), no? I discovered that file by mistake with filename completion in my editor while looking for Objects/exceptions.c :-)
