Initializing PyObject_HEAD in place

I have a class derived from PyObject:
class MetaFld : public PyObject /* python header: ref. counter +
&typeobject */ {
friend class MCI<MetaFld>;
MetaFld *next;
protected:
long n_id; // for(fldnum=recnum-10000;;++fldnum) n_id = fldnum;
......
The initialization in constructor
MetaFld::MetaFld(MetaRec *owner, const char *name, const char *type,
const char *field_name_postfix)
: PyObject(&metafldtype), .......
worked like that before (last time I compile this which was 3 years ago
ot so). Not sure how, but it did. Well, today it did not. Maybe someone
upgraded Python to 1.4 in that time period.
So, my question is how would I inittialize PyObject struct (the base of
my class) in the constructor or my class? I need something like
_PyObject_New() as defined for core dll in windows, that is with
allocated space passed as a second parameter.
I'm using Python 1.4 on SCO OpenServer and would rather not upgrade to
latest and greatest (2.2.1?) unless there is a pressing need for that.
I've checked the tutorial and took a brief look at FAQ: this does not
seem to be covered.
Thank you!
