Hi!
I'm looking at trunk/Python/sysmodule.c, function PySys_SetArgv(). In that
function, there is code like this:
PyObject* path = PySys_GetObject("path");
...
if (path != NULL) {
...
}
My intuition says that if path==NULL, something is very wrong. At least I
would expect to get 'None', but never NULL, except when out of memory. So,
for the case that path==NULL', I would simply invoke Py_FatalError("no mem
for sys.path"), similarly to the other call there.
Sounds reasonable?

I also meant to mention that there might be a reason why we want the out
of memory error to bubble up to the caller should that happen while
attempting to allocate the PyString in PyDict_GetItemString, rather than
just bailing out with a generic FatalError.
Cheers,
