After initText() is called, I expect. I suspect it is known as "Text"
then rather than its proper name "Blender.Text". Perhaps I will test.

Yes, I was as an experiment converting a couple of modules in Blender's

are statically linked so the procedure was a bit different from
dynamically loaded modules.
