self->ob_type is fine if `self` is a plain PyObject* and not a subclass
pointer.

The issue in changing all of them to Py_TYPE is that there's no Py_TYPE
on Python 2.4, and we define it locally only in core/src/private so it's
a bit icky to include npy_3kcompat.h outside that subtree.

Anyway, with suitable #ifndef's there should be no problem.

That was fixed in 48f8edfdc8fc24484b2c91d581e00b4024a341ac
