Thanks for the clarification. I did see that line, but got confused by
the documentation.

        int PyString_Check(PyObject *o)
            Return true if the object o is a string object or an
            instance of a subtype of the string type. Changed in version
            2.2: Allowed subtypes to be accepted.

I assumed this meant all subtypes of any kind of string, since there's
no BaseString API method. It sounds like I had that wrong.
