Alternatively, we could add a new C API function, and gradually replace PyDict_GetItem() uses with the the new one. I can't think of an obvious name, though... Maybe code should just start using PyMapping_GetItem() instead. It's not incredibly slower than PyDict_GetItem(), at least in the non-KeyError case.
