For the record, in the 3.7.1 release build, `PyNamespace_New + d4` is in enable_symlink (Modules/posixmodule.c), which gets called when the nt (aka posix) module gets initialized. It's the return address for the LookupPrivilegeValueA call:

    0:000> u (python37!PyNamespace_New + d4 - 6) l2
    python37!enable_symlink+0x42:
    00007ffd`e4b9a356 
        ff153ccd1500    call    qword ptr 
        [python37!_imp_LookupPrivilegeValueA (00007ffd`e4cf7098)]
    00007ffd`e4b9a35c 
        85c0            test    eax,eax

It's just that Cao didn't have the python37.pdb symbol file available in Process Explorer.
