I'm trying to come up with a patch. It's a little bit trickier than I thought. The atexit module registers "atexit_callfuncs()" with _Py_PyAtExit(). The "atexit_callfuncs()" function is called by Python/pythonrun.c when the interpreter exits. The function is cleared as "static void atexit_callfuncs(void)" so it doesn't get the module through self. However PyModule_GetDef requires self. In order to use PEP 3121 we have to add a mechanism to pass the module instance to atexit_callfuncs().
