First step in porting MacPython modules to OSX/unix: break all references between modules except for the obj_New() and obj_Convert() routines, the PyArg_Parse and Py_BuildValue helpers. And these can now be vectored through glue routines (by defining USE_TOOLBOX_OBJECT_GLUE) which will do the necessary imports, whereupon the module's init routine will tell the glue routine about the real conversion routine address and everything is fine again.

	x = fabs(x);
	y = fabs(y);
	if (x < y) {
		double temp = x;
		x = y;
		y = temp;
	}
	if (x == 0.)
		return 0.;
	else {
		yx = y/x;
		return x*sqrt(1.+yx*yx);
	}
