[Python-Dev] Use of PyArg_NoArgs()

This seems a simple case of replacing PyArg_Parse with
PyArg_ParseTuple.

> Python/sysmodule.c:     {"exit",     METH_OLDARGS, 

This one *appears* tricky.  But in fact, changing it to METH_VARARGS
should work just as well (I think).

Or deprecated.  I've never met somebody who used it.

It's deprecated, just as PyArg_NoArgs().  Now's a good time to get rid
of the last usage instance.
