Guido van Rossum added the comment:

Can you redo the patch while keeping the slot *position* (though not the
name or type)?  The wasted space is minimal (4-8 bytes per type or class
object) and it means a lot for third party code if the positional struct
initialization never breaks due to insertion or removal of a slot. 
Since everyone has a zero here anyway, I propose to name the slot
nb_reserved and make its type int.
