Marc-Andre, can you review this?  I think you have more 
experience building C APIs for modules than anyone else 
(while I don't have any).

There's certainly no objection to giving datetime a C API, and 
Guido already said he doesn't want to rely on that Martin 
changed datetime to be built as part of the core (in 2.3 on 
Windows, datetime.pyd was a distinct DLL; in CVS, datetime 
is compiled into the core DLL now).

Anthony, you probably need to add doc and test patches.  
_testcapimodule.c holds tests of things you can only get at 
from C.
