To avoid breaking external inspection, profilers and debuggers too often or to make supporting them too difficult, we added a special offset struct in the PyRuntime structure. Unfortunately there is nothing testing that this offsets are correct or that they are enough to analyse or profile a Python application on their own. To fix this, we should add some testing that exercises the offsets and ensure they are enough to serve the purpose they were added.
