I may be confusing API and ABI (see my other message), but adding to or removing functions from the stable ABI seems to be a very serious mistake, IMO - private or not. Unless my understanding of the word 'stable' is wrong...
Ok - my mistake. The PEP allows functions to be added (but not to be removed). From PEP 384:
""" During evolution of Python, new ABI functions will be added. Applications using them will then have a requirement on a minimum version of Python; this PEP provides no mechanism for such applications to fall back when the Python library is too old. """
