  14 years later, we still don't know what it's for.
  Spotted by the PyPy developers.

  Original commit is:

  branch:      trunk
  user:        guido
  date:        Mon Aug 19 21:32:04 1996 +0200
  files:       Python/getargs.c
  description:
  [svn r6499] Support for keyword arguments (PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords) donated by
  Geoff Philbrick <philbric@delphi.hks.com> (slightly changed by me).

  Also a little change to make the file acceptable to K&R C compilers
  (HPUX, SunOS 4.x).
