Hi,

you probably could use a global variable, similar to PLy_interp_globals 
that's defined in plpy_main.c.

Another method would be to expose the Decimal constructor in the plpy 
module. You could modify plpy_plpymodule.c to import decimal and expose 
the Decimal constructor as plpy.Decimal.

Best,
