Ah, good to know.

You are damn right. While implementing xheap and looking at the C 
implementation, I just assumed that all Python functions would be 
replaced by when the C module is imported. Furthermore, the C module 
exports some internal functions (leading _ ) such as _heappop_max. Thus, 
I assumed this is true for _siftup without verifying it by looking too 
closely at the PyMethodDef and PyModuleDef structs. Sorry for that.

Best,
Sven
