to the table of built-in modules. This should normally be called
*before* Py_Initialize(). When the malloc() or realloc() call fails,
-1 is returned and the existing table is unchanged.

PySys_WriteStdout(format, ...)
PySys_WriteStderr(format, ...)
The first function writes to sys.stdout; the second to sys.stderr. When
there is a problem, they write to the real (C level) stdout or stderr;
no exceptions are raised (but a pending exception may be cleared when a
new exception is caught).
Both take a printf-style format string as their first argument followed
by a variable length argument list determined by the format string.
*** WARNING ***
The format should limit the total size of the formatted output string to
1000 bytes. In particular, this means that no unrestricted "%s" formats
should occur; these should be limited using "%.<N>s where <N> is a
decimal number calculated so that <N> plus the maximum size of other
formatted text does not exceed 1000 bytes. Also watch out for "%f",
which can print hundreds of digits for very large numbers.
PyThreadState_GetDict() returns a dictionary that can be used to hold such
state; the caller should pick a unique key and store its state there. If
PyThreadState_GetDict() returns NULL, an exception has been raised (most
likely MemoryError) and the caller should pass on the exception. */

Frozen packages are indicated by a negative size (the code string
is the __import__.py file). A frozen package module has its __path__
set to a string, the package name.
