How to get a PyObject corresponding to a builtin?

Question

If I want to get a PyObject for something like, say, sys.exc_info , I can write

PyObject *sys_module = PyImport_Import("sys");
PyObject *sys_exc_info = PyObject_GetAttr(sys_module, "exc_info");

What if I want to get a PyObject corresponding to a builtin such as list() or dir() ? I've tried writing PyImport_Import("builtins") and PyImport_AddModule("builtins") and looking in the dictionary for that module, but it doesn't seem to be working as expected.

builtins在 Python 2 中称为__builtin__ 。
