In Py3k this could perhaps be different in the case where
you're calling a function defined like

   def f(*args, **kwds):
     ...

In that case there are no named arguments to look up
in the dict, so when it's called using

   f(**obj)

the obj could be passed straight through to the kwds
argument.
