error. For ``DecodeFSDefault``, the return type is ``const char *``; return a ``NULL``
pointer to indicate an error.

(There's also an experimental ``NoneType`` converter, which lets you
return ``Py_None`` on success or ``NULL`` on failure, without having
to increment the reference count on ``Py_None``. I'm not sure it adds
