It might use #ifdefs.  However, my proposal was forwards-compatible.  
When iterating over the methoddef array passed in with a type, if the 
PyMethodDef flags parameter had METH_SIGNATURE set, I'd advance by 
sizeof(PyMethodDefEx) bytes, otherwise I'd advance by 
sizeof(PyMethodDef) bytes.  Modules compiled against 3.3 would not have 
the flag set, therefore I'd advance by the right amount, therefore they 
should be fine.
