You should take a look at weave:

http://www.scipy.org/site_content/weave

Right now it's under heavy development, and not exactly what you want (it's 
not a wrapper for already-existing complete libraries). But it's definitely 
one tool you should consider as part of the arsenal for python/C/C++ 
integration.
