In #1626545, Anton Tropashko requests that object.h should be renamed, because it causes conflicts with other software.
I would like to comply with this requests for 2.6, assuming there shouldn't be many problems with existing software as object.h shouldn't be included directly, anyway.
I like the idea of renaming the header files, but I expect there is a lot more opportunity for breaking code that you estimate. I did a search on google.com/codesearch and found seven external packages that include Python.h and object.h (before I gave up).
I assume we expect people won't include it, because it is also included in object.h. But they do it. Is there documentation that says you shouldn't import it?

What do you think?
