Thanks, that indeed allows me to use stuff in the testing module.
It is not quite what I was hoping for, as the Python code will
come from a user-written file, and ideally I would like the
Python code to be able to load arbitrary modules. However,
the set of Boost.Python produced modules is fairly small,
so in a pinch I can simply import all of them using
PyImport_AppendInittab. A tad too brute force to my taste, but
I can live with it.

I'm looking forward for 1.34 to come out officially.
