Indeed, let's not forget about those, which are a compatibility
problem in and of themselves: http://bugs.python.org/issue11477

At most, the tp_mapping and tp_as_sequence overlap should be an FAQ
entry in the devguide that says "yes, the implementation of this is
weird. It's like that for historical reasons, and fixing it is a long
way down the priority list for changes"

Cheers,
Nick.
