from what I can tell, "ob" is used as a prefix for PyObject struct
members, but never in function/macro names.  don't think "Ob"
is ever used (after all, it means Obligatory, not Object [1] ;-)

"obj" is used in the func/proc pointers (intobjargproc etc), and
"Obj" is used in the mac toolbox.

everything else uses "Object"
