Quite a few extensions are being developed via branches now. It sounds
like this will be ok if pickle is being used, but should I be worried
about causing people headaches before that is ready?

I really don't want to have a bunch of preprocessor use in the
extensions I am working on. It makes them harder to maintain, and a lot
harder for new contributors.
