sigh. We seem to be getting further and further off course, here. The more different you make the semantics of the system, the harder it will be to verify that it's doing the right thing without having real field experience with the new approach.

sigh, too. :/

This discussion has neither helping me nor you. Could you please write an unit test or two to show me exactly what my implementation is doing wrong and how you think the callbacks should be called. I know a simple test won't proof the correctness of the implementation but a failing test would at least show the incorrectness.

I'm still not sure which way is the correct way in your opinion and I hate guessing what you are trying to explain to me.

PS: I've a pending patch that queues new registrations while hooks are processed in PyImport_NotifyModuleLoaded().
