This is apparently because sys.modules contains Unicode (str) keys,
while 'parentname' is an old-style string. Attached patch seems to fix
it, but I have no idea if it is correct in principle

Why are you using PyUnicode_AsUTF32String(parentname)?
PyUnicode_AsString() is the correct method (although it's not yet in the
docs).
The rest looks fine. PyModule_GetName() returns a char* from
PyUnicode_AsString(). Fixed in r58838.

Thank you for the commit.
I just had a problem with my package, and since I was not sure if it was
a bug in Py3k or the package, I went to debugging the former and found
this. I just didn't know how to work with Unicode strings properly.
