I'm not aware of a standard that says how CryptDeriveKey is supposed
to work. Or rather, there are multiple possible standard ways to do
it.

What does the name of the function tell you? You can't do that in one
hit. Start with
PyObject *_sys = PyImport_ImportModule("sys");
then you need to get the module's argv attribute.
However a better design might be have your extension module

I don't like string interpolation within REs, it pops me out of 'RE

Maybe creating a dict of matchobjects could be used in the larger

1. Make "targets" a set, not a list.
