The PyBytes_* functions appear to be there, but a preprocessor macro
means it is actually the PyString_* functions that appear in the Python
DLL. That's great from a backwards compatibility point of view, but
seriously confusing from the point of view of anyone trying to embed or
otherwise debug Python 2.6.

Not very likely at all - but it would still be nice if the PyBytes_*
symbols were visible to the linker as well as the preprocessor.
Cheers,
