Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment:

Short of adding a `tp_alignment`, though, I think we should not make things 
harder for the common cases.  This means we should probably keep the "double" 
member to ensure that extension types that have a "double" field in their 
object struct have the right alignment by default.  "long double" is much rarer 
and people who need it can workaround alignment issues by hand (for example by 
issuing memcpy() calls).
