Instead, I'm now thinking we should add a types C extension module and expose the new function as types.buildclass(). I don't want to add an entire new module just for this feature, and the types module seems like an appropriate home for it.

Dunno. Currently the only thing the types module contains is types. A function would seem a bit out of place there.

I don't think there's too much wrong with putting it in the operators module -- it's a function doing something that is otherwise expressed by special syntax.
