-\item XXX Introduce two new flag bits that can be set in a PyMethodDef method
-descriptor, as used for the tp_methods slot of a type. These new flag
-bits are both optional, and mutually exclusive. Most methods will not
-use either. These flags are used to create special method types which
-exist in the same namespace as normal methods without having to use
-tedious construction code to insert the new special method objects in
-the type's tp_dict after PyType_Ready() has been called.

-If METH_CLASS is specified, the method will represent a class method
-like that returned by the classmethod() built-in.
-
-If METH_STATIC is specified, the method will represent a static method
-like that returned by the staticmethod() built-in.
-
-These flags may not be used in the PyMethodDef table for modules since
-these special method types are not meaningful in that case; a
-ValueError will be raised if these flags are found in that context.
+\item It's now possible to define class and static methods for a C
+extension type by setting either the \constant{METH_CLASS} or
+\constant{METH_STATIC} flags in a method's \ctype{PyMethodDef}

+On MacOS, most toolbox modules have been weaklinked to improve

+Instead calling the missing routine will raise an exception.
