Is it really worth the effort?

We have "pDocumentTemplate" and "cDocumentTemplate" in Zope 2.
A long time ago, "cDocumentTemplate" might have been
the optimized version of "pDocumentTemplate".
But nowadays, this is no longer the case: while
"cDocumentTemplate" works, "pDocumentTemplate" no longer does
(as only the C version was maintained).

I would drop the Python version as soon as a well
tested C version is available.
