Attached is a patch exposing the old opcode_stack_effect() function to Python. The patch does the following:
* renames opcode_stack_effect() to PyCompile_OpcodeStackEffect()
* removes the "static" modifier from PyCompile_OpcodeStackEffect()
* changes PyCompile_OpcodeStackEffect()'s behavior so it returns a magic
 value on failure
* preserves existing behavior when compiling code and encountering
 an opcode/oparg pair that results in failure
* creates a new _opcode module
* exposes PyCompile_OpcodeStackEffect() as _opcode.stack_effect()
* tests _opcode module with new test__opcode.py
* imports _opcode.stack_effect() into opcode, exposing it publically
* documents the function in dis (there is no documentation for opcode,
 and dis imports and exposes everything in opcode)
Whew! I think it's ready to go in.
