Hmm, reading more of those and I think Serhiy is definitely right -
Object is the wrong suffix. Unicode isn't right either, since the main
problem is that ambiguity around *which* parameter is a Python Unicode
object. The API names that end in *StringObject or *FileObject don't
give the right idea at all.

The shortest accurate suffix I can come up with at the moment is the
verbose "WithUnicodeFilename":

    PyParser_ParseStringObject vs
    PyParser_ParseStringWithUnicodeFilename

Other possibilities:

    PyParser_ParseStringUnicode # Huh?
    PyParser_ParseStringDecodedFilename # Slight fib on Windows, but
mostly accurate
    PyParser_ParseStringAnyFilename

Inserting an underscore before the suffix is another option (although
I don't think it much matters either way).
