hi, i'm happy i got a response on this :)

anyway, can u elaborate on the "reason" y something like this was never
done?

yes, i kno the patch is rough right now (& will never get accepted in
its current state), but its now proven to work, & gives migrating
developers *something* to test their py3k_syntax code while *still*
maintaining compatibility w/ python2.x extension modules.

isn't that the spirit of python 2.7?  in the meantime, i'm in no hurry
to have anything committed.
