Hey, this is a hit!
First result: It works, if we do this:

int init_prickelpit(void)
{
	if (0
	//	|| init_codetype()
     //    || init_functype()
     //    || init_celltype()
	//	|| init_frametype()
	//	|| init_tracebacktype()
	//	|| init_moduletype()
		|| init_moduledicttype()
      //   || init_itertype()
	//	|| init_methodtype()
	//	|| init_generatortype()
     //    || init_dictitertype()
         || init_enumtype()
         || init_enumfactorytype()
     //    || init_listitertype()
     //    || init_rangeitertype()
     //    || init_tupleitertype()
		) return -1;
     return 0;
}

I will uncomment stuff tomorrow, then we'll see :-))
