# always return NULL. This is used by some of the PyErr_*() functions, in
# particular.
# XXX NOTE: the 0/+1/-1 refcount information for arguments is
# confusing! Much more useful would be to indicate whether the
# function "steals" a reference to the argument or not. Take for
# example PyList_SetItem(list, i, item). This lists as a 0 change for
# both the list and the item arguments. However, in fact it steals a
# reference to the item argument!
# The parameter names are as they appear in the API manual, not the source
# code.
