Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettinger at gmail.com> added the comment:

With today's announcement of guaranteed ordering for regular dicts, OrderedDict just became much less important (almost insignificant).  Also, the original reason for having this C API no longer applies.

There is a reasonable case to be made for removing the API entirely (given that it was never documented, that it is buggy, and that it is no longer of any significance).
