Again, I think this should be explicitly exclusive to an
embedding application, as I cannot imagine a situation where
an extension module should even have access to this facility.

I have done rather limited tests. My application doesn't
seem to like Python 2.5alpha, so I'm going to test the patch
against 2.4.

Sorry to butt into your patch, mutkuk, but here's my
recommendation with docs(ugh, cant attach files):
