[New-bugs-announce] [issue32371] Delay-loading of python dll is impossible when using some C macros

[Pierre Chatelier]

New submission from Pierre Chatelier <pierre at chachatelier.fr>:

Delay-loading of the python DLL is impossible when using some C macros.

For instance, PyLong_Check() is OK, but PyBool_Check() or PyFunc_Check() 
will eventually raise a link error.

This is due to the fact that PyBool_Check() directly use the PyBool_Type symbol instead of getting a reference through a function.

For the same reason, Py_False and Py_True are problematic.
