Yes, it is a new feature in 2.1.  The pyexpat.c module
doesn't call PyFrame_New at all in 2.0.

My PyFrame_New is the same as yours, but I moved the
setting of f_execute = eval_code2_loop into it, so that
any third-party modules that use PyFrame_New will get
a fully setup frame structure.  Which fixed another
problem with pyexpat.c.
