"""
pep384_macrocheck.py

This programm tries to locate errors in the relevant Python header
files where macros access type fields when they are reachable from
the limided API.

The idea is to search macros with the string "->tp_" in it.
When the macro name does not begin with an underscore,
then we have found a dormant error.
