I think we should be less precise in terms of implementation and rather mention __func__.__code__ directly.

This isn't right.

code might have been deallocated by the time you do Py_NewRef

Also, don't we have a FT-helper alterantive to Py_XSETREF?

PyCodeObject *old =
(PyCodeObject *)_Py_atomic_exchange_ptr(&op->func_code, new);
Py_XDECREF(old);
