Oops. The value "0 or +1" for the category argument of PyErr_Warn()
...
doesn't work. Make it 0. (Although it really *should* be 0 or +1 --
the refcount is incremented when it is raised as an exception, but not
otherwise.)

In the first discussion showing how to handle exceptions from C, make the
...
Python equivalent actually equivalent to the C code. Also, in the C code,
place the "goto" statements on a line by themselves for better visibility
of statements that affect control flow.
This closes bug #123398 .

Added warning about passing NULL to the concrete object functions; many of

This patch adds a new Python C API called PyString_AsStringAndSize()
...
which implements the automatic conversion from Unicode to a string
object using the default encoding.
The new API is then put to use to have eval() and exec accept
Unicode objects as code parameter. This closes bugs #110924
and #113890 .
As side-effect, the traditional C APIs PyString_Size() and
PyString_AsString() will also accept Unicode objects as
parameters.
