Well, it's implemented as a C extension. IIRC Johan implemented it by
looking at the Persistent and *BTree extensions and setting up the
ExtensionClass up in an analogous fashion. I don't think we *use* any EC
features beyond being able to "subclass" Persistent in C (which is now
possible with new-style Objects).

Take care,
