Pyd doesn't really have a python codebase, I was talking mostly about 
PyString_AsString -> PyUnicode_Whatever, since even for Python 2, 
unicode is much more appropriate for anything interfacing with D.

For getting pyd to support python 3, its mostly a matter of choosing the 
right C API functions, and anyways I have version identifiers I can rely 
on if there is divergence.

Wait, CeleriD is python. I might need that six package after all. Thanks 
for the tip.
