I'm sorry, but you're wrong. Interfacing python to interoperate with
the underlying system is compatibility. Surely your own win32
extensions already address this necessity.

Regardless, as I said before, nothing justifies silently changing the
meaning of a program based on an option that most users don't set for
themselves and are not aware of. When such a change would take place,
it should be reported explicitly as an error.
