Stefan Krah: "PyBUF_SIMPLE implies C-contiguous for a conforming buffer provider." Oh ok, thanks for the confirmation. So my change didn't add new checks and my commit message is wrong :-) Only non-conforming objects are impacted, but in such case, it's more a bug in the object than a bug in struct. I guess that non-conforming non-contiguous objects are very rare in the wild ;-) The new code is more strict, so is safe in all corner cases.
