I can't say much about SRE, but the C extension interface should be on anyone's "must peer deeply into" list, except that there isn't a real need to peer deeply into it :) Lets peer into it. I'm going to discuss the pre-2.2 state of affairs, mostly because I know jack shit about the 2.2-type-dichotomy-healing :)

Ah, I see. (and thanks heaps) Well, I just rejigged my thinking a bit on what we need to export, then. My take's been both more agressively black-box about things, and much less OO. Too much C on the brain, I expect.
