I'm sure it's not hard to find the memory block that argv resides at if you are a kernel module, but I suspect fewer changes are required by using the mechanism I proposed earlier. ;-)

This is not something that python should be doing. If you really need this, do it as an extension module. This functionality is too OS specific to be made a general change to Python when it provides no real advantage.
