I suggest using sys._xoptions to make it clearer that this is for CPython specific internal implementation runtime tweaks. We're putting it in sys so we can get at it, not applications. (It also makes it clear that other implementations aren't obliged to implement any particular interface to the -X options. Requiring that would go against the whole spirit of -X)
