There is something about static initializers in MSVC. Generally, code will
add a line such as:

(from arraymodule.c)

    Arraytype.ob_type = &PyType_Type;


I don't know exactly *why* it must be done that way, but there ya go. The
underlying point is that the initialization of the type objects can be
simplified quite a bit.
