SF bug 1185883: PyObject_Realloc can't safely take over a block currently
managed by C, because it's possible for the block to be smaller than the
new requested size, and at the end of allocated VM. Trying to copy over
nbytes bytes to a Python small-object block can segfault then, and there's
no portable way to avoid this (we would have to know how many bytes
starting at p are addressable, and std C has no means to determine that).
Bugfix candidate. Should be backported to 2.4, but I'm out of time.
