instead (two arguments, each with one flag, which the glue code then
combines into a single integer; compared to the existing approach of
letting Python do the bitwise math and pass in a single integer up front).
We check the Flags argument appears only once at the end, but while
that means this is possible it will make the generator a bit more
complicated because it loses the one-to-one mapping of args with
Python arguments.
