Original issue. https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-python/issues/497 _PyFloat_(Pack\|Unpack)(4\|8) is very nice API for serializers like msgpack. Converting double and float into char[] is not trivial and these APIs do it in very efficient way. And these APIs don't reveal CPython internal strucutre. It just convert double and float into char[]. So please keep these APIs public for libraries like msgpack.
