This looks interesting. Why did you add a tpccalloffset slot to the type with the actual information in instances instead of storing the information in a slot?

Think of built-in functions. Every built-in function is a different callable and calls a different C function. So it must be stored in the instances.

However, the case where all instances share a PyCCallDef is also possible: all instances would then simply have the same PyCCallDef pointer.
