Hi all,

Just a reminder that PEP 576 still exists as a lightweight alternative 
to PEP 575/580. It achieves the same goals as PEP 580 but is much smaller.

https://github.com/markshannon/pep-576

Unless there is a big rush, I would like to do some experiments as to 
whether the new calling convention should be

typedef (*callptr)(PyObject *func, PyObject *const *stack,
                    Py_ssize_t nargs, PyObject *kwnames);

or whether the increased generality of:

typedef (*callptr)(PyObject *func, PyObject *const *stack,
                    Py_ssize_t nargs, PyObject *kwnames,
                    PyTupleObject *starargs, PyObject *kwdict);

is a worthwhile enhancement.


An implementation can be found here:

Cheers,
Mark.
